It won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be a public beta that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s open to everyone who wants a sneak peek; that will come later this year, and the final version of Office 2010 isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t due until some time during the first half of next year. But for the first time since it demoed some features last October, Microsoft is showing off the new Office and providing more information about its plans. And it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s briefed reporters and provided them with early access to the Technical Preview (including me).<\/p>\n<p>Office 2010 will be the first version of the suite to reflect the era in which upstarts such as Google Docs and Zoho are delivering Office-like features in the browser, and charging little or no money for them. Microsoft\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s response to the new challengers is multifaceted. On one hand, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s introducing the first Web-based versions of the major Office apps. But it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s also stuffing scads of ambitious new features into the traditional versions of the applications, as if to prove its oft-stated (and accurate) contention that local software can still do lots of things that Web services can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t. And it intends to make the traditional and Web versions of the apps into a powerful team that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s more useful and versatile than either standalone software or a purely browser-based suite can be.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, using the current version of the Technical Preview doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t tell us enough to come to even a preliminary verdict about whether the final version of Office 2010 will be a no-brainer upgrade. That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s because Microsoft isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t providing access to the Web applications or an array of new collaboration tools yet\u00e2\u20ac\u201cand it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the online and collaborative stuff that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the biggest, boldest change planned for Office 2010. Moreover, the Technical Preview, unlike an almost-finished piece of software such as the Windows 7 Release Candidate, is still subject to meaningful revision before it goes out the door. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s rough around the edges in spots, and Microsoft says it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still looking for input from testers. So all I can say is that I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m cautiously optimistic about Office 2010 based on what I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve seen so far.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not all I can say\u00e2\u20ac\u201cread on for my hands-on impressions of the Technical Preview, plus some information on the features that Microsoft isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t ready to let outsiders try just yet. There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a lot to chew on, so I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll focus on the features that impress and\/or intrigue me most.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/technologizer.com\/2009\/07\/13\/microsoft-office-2010-review\/\" target=\"_blank\">ARTICLE CONTINUED HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[This post is excerpted with Harry&#8217;s permission from his <a href=\"http:\/\/technologizer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Technologizer<\/a> blog.]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/techtalk.pcpitstop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/harrywp.jpg\" alt=\"oncomputers\" class=\"attachment wp-att-7167 alignleft\" \/><\/p>\n<p>By Harry McCracken<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft is starting to let folks in on the Webbiest, most collaborative Office ever.
