Microsoft Branding Is All About 2010
Microsoft is looking to have a busy year next year,
rolling out new revs of SharePoint, Exchange, Office and Office Web tools. Even Project and Visio will get facelifts.
Microsoft product names can be confusing, and when you get used to one, Microsoft is liable to change it on you. It also has names like Word, Project and Windows Server that actually describe function. Then it has names that don't mean a thing but are just meant to sound cool, like Zune and Vista.
Next year a tiny bit of this confusion will go away as key products all get the 2010 tag. And as part of its new naming scheme, Microsoft is renaming Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) as just Microsoft SharePoint Server. Be still, my heart!
