Microsoft to Acquire Groove Networks, Ray Ozzie Will Join Microsoft as New CTO

Wow. This news took me totally by surprise. Groove is peer-to-peer collaboration software developed by the creator of Lotus Notes. What does this mean for the future of Microsoft Sharepoint?

“Peer-to-peer collaboration solutions through Groove’s Virtual Office, which let any Windows-based PC user instantly create. ad-hoc, virtual work spaces that securely and easily span organizational, geographic and network boundaries, and allow information workers to be productive whether they’re online or temporarily disconnected from the network.”

This doesn’t sound like the Microsoft I know. Cool!
