From this WSJ article it sounds like Microsoft will soon be launching, “an online version of its Office suite of business productivity applications.” Intriguing. With Google continually adding to its stable of web-based applications and soaking up endless ad revenue you’d have to assume Microsoft was going to move toward a solution like this.

It doesn’t sound like an online Office replacement however, but a bit more of an addendum to Office as a hosted solution that offers, “a secure online workspace for organizing and managing customer and business information.”

The race between Microsoft and Google to produce the dominant webOS just quickened its pace?
