How to Share Large File on The Web Using MegaUpload
The following tutorial will explain you how to share a large file on the web between you and your friend or anyone else. I'm choosing
MegaUpload as an example here - not for any particular reason - but later, I might write more tutorial for other large file sharing service, such as
YouSendIt and
RapidShare.
One of the most advantage of using MegaUpload, compare with other similar service, is the duration how long your file(s) will be kept in their server. Your uploaded files will be deleted only after it become unused for 30 days. So, if many of your friends download it, over and over again, the files will always be there. The size is quite big, up to 250MB. Not as big as YouSendIt which allow up to 1GB file size, but it's more than enough to share your music files, movies, etc.

No, Linux 85.4% vs. Windows 1% is not a typo, neither the result of erroneous information.

My Office 12 Review
A few weeks ago the Microsoft Office team worked hard to get Beta 1 out of the door to beta testers via Microsoft Beta. This build was quite successful in all products of Office.
Unfortunately, Microsoft Office ?12? does not come with a new product but the same products that have many changes will keep testers busy until Beta 2! During the Beta phase of Office 2003, Code-named ?Office 11? and referred to as NGO (Next Generation of Office), brought new applications to the table. These applications were InfoPath and OneNote.

feature is that Back-Stage view has been altered and enhanced alot more and looks like it's almost finished. There's a new upload center to

Microsoft's Office Trial conversion program is so successful, the company now clearly competes with its retail and dealer partners.
The signs were there in February, when we said the Office Trial program "
could"
cause channel conflict. There's no more "could" about it.
Microsoft now has 9 percent dollar share for the U.S. retail
productivity suite market, according to NPD. Chris Swenson, NPD's director of software industry analysis, largely attributed Microsoft's market
share gains to Office Trial conversions.
Microsoft offers the trials through a number of venues, including direct from the Web or
on new PCs. Microsoft also directly fulfills Office conversions. Users can purchase activation codes directly from Microsoft via the Web.

10.10.2007Web Office Defined - How it's Evolved From 2005 to Present
This is
Web Office Week here at Read/WriteWeb, but some of
you may not be 100% sure what a Web Office is. Even the Wikipedia definition is a bit bare bones, so in this post I'm going to take a crack at
defining 'Web Office'. What I ended up with is this:
A Web Office suite is a combination of productivity, publishing and
collaboration features. A Web Office both embraces the functionality of desktop office suites (e.g. Microsoft Office) and extends it by using Web
Native features.
But let's start at the beginning.
Wikipedia currently states that a Web Office "is a set of applications hosted on a server that enable users to create, edit and
share information. It is a derivative of the Desktop Office Suite, but has more collaboration capabilities due to its Web nature."

29.08.2007Microsoft Holding Its Ground
on Office for Linux
Some prominent figures

that as enterprises increase
their use of Linux on the

be forced to consider offering
a version of Office for
Linux???or at least make its
software more interoperable
with open-source desktop
productivity
suites.
"
When the [Linux desktop]
market share gets to a certain
point, Microsoft will, just as
it did with Apple [Computer
Inc.] in the past, make Office
available on Linux," Open
Source Development Labs Inc.
CEO Stuart Cohen told eWEEK in
a recent interview.
"I'm sure they
have done the work and that
they know what the market
numbers need to be for that to
be financially viable for
them. I really think that when
enough of their enterprise
customers' office workers,
help centers, IT and
engineering departments are
running Linux on the desktop
and interoperability really
becomes an issue, they will go
and listen to their
customers," he said,
acknowledging that he has no
evidence of any willingness on
Microsoft's part to allow
Office to run on top of Linux...

25.05.2006Announcing Service Pack 2 (SP2) for the 2007 Microsoft Office System
Office Service Pack Team: Were pleased to announce that Service Pack 2 (SP2) for the 2007 Microsoft Office system is expected to be released in the
near future. Although we arent yet announcing the exact release date, it will fall between February and April of 2009.
Historically, we have waited to communicate details about service packs until their release (or very shortly before). As we communicated with SP3
for Office 2003 and SP1 for the 2007 Office System, we will be taking steps to increase transparency and visibility into the Office servicing model at
the request of our customers. To that end, we would like to start sharing some details into what will be included in SP2 for the 2007 Office system.
This is by no means an exhaustive list of everything included in this service pack and we will share more details prior to the final release, but we
want to start communicating to customers what they should be aware of at a high level.

We

environments will find this the most reliable version to date - I have been living in daily builds of Entourage for over two months now, and I am
delighted with the stability and reliability of our Exchange support and how well the calendar interoperates with my assistant, who uses Outlook.
