Free software from Microsoft
I just found this interesting story on C|net today claiming that:
After years of exploring the matter, Microsoft has finally started offering an ad-funded version of Microsoft Works in some countries. Users who run the software see a small ad as they are writing their document or editing their spreadsheet.
This looks interesting, and I hope that it’s a successful pilot for Microsoft. What do you think about ad-supported software? I’m a big fan when it’s a good product. Spiceworks is my favorite in that category - that’s one piece of software that I consider priceless.
