I've recently updated Wordpress (the software that drives this blog that you're looking at) and I must admit I'm not too fond of the new administration site. However besides the 'look' and 'feel' of the administration site the rest of the features are pretty cool, and to adapt some of these new features I'll have to redesign the blog (the part you see).

So over the next couple of weeks I'm going to be working closely with Freehill Media to develop a new design for the blog that will also be able to use the new Wordpress features. If anyone has any suggestions to what they want to see on my blog, or what they want created for their own blog, drop me a comment below.

Microsoft Office Live Beta Logo

Microsoft hasn't hit the online community (yet), instead they've released a service for you to share your office docs across the Internet called Office Live Workspace. Many believe that this will allow Microsoft to focus on one version of Office and thus creating better applications, others believe that Microsoft should throw out the desktop applications all together and just focus on creating online office applications.

What Microsoft have released is an online version of Microsoft Sharepoint which allows you to share documents and sync edits. There are some additional services like an online Word editor (however very limited).

The service also includes these features:-

* Activity panel. A new activity panel shows all the activity in a workspace at a glance.
* Notifications. People can now receive e-mail notifications about changes made to their workspaces or documents.
* Direct links. People can now bookmark their workspace or a workspace item via a unique URL in a browser window.
* Multi-file upload. People can now upload several files simultaneously by simply dragging and dropping from their desktop.
* Improved sharing. New sharing functionality includes an easier user interface and auto-completion of e-mail addresses.
