Microsoft delivers another update to Office Live Workspace

Microsoft rolled out quietly on May 15 its . Microsoft in December 2007.

A refresher, again, on what Office Live Workspace is (and isn’t): Office Live Workspace is the closest thing Microsoft has to Google Docs. It is not a Web-based version of Microsoft Office. It is meant, first and foremost, to be a complement to Microsoft Office.

As Microsoft officials have said, Office Live Workspace service can be used from a PC, kiosk or other Web-access point without Office (or another desktop productivity suite) installed; all you technically need is an Internet Explorer or Firefox browser. Office Live Workspace comes with a rudimentary online word processor called Web Notes; a “spreadsheet” that (at least so far) doesn’t do calculations called Web Lists; and the ability to access, view and comment on documents — both your own and those created by others who grant permission.
