- Microsoft to Enter SaaS
- The blogosphere is on fire with the anticipated announcement that Microsoft will be entering the Software as a Service SaaS market this or next week. Just how they'll enter the market is still uncertain. My guess is that they'll in part blend SaaS with desktop technology much the way we've...
