Great move by Yahoo, now they need to acquire Proijty. This will give them an opportunity to join Google, IBM, Sun and Novell in offering a suite of Office solutions that are a replacement of Microsoft Office. I am using Zimbra and Projity along with a few other solutions. Zimbra for email and Projity replaces Microsoft Project. It is amazing the solutions that replace Microsoft proprietary software.

I don't see Yahoo being able to get their money's worth out of this. Seems like Yahoo has already proven that they are good at spending money. Now they need to show they are good at making it.

Dunno, maybe a competitor to Google Apps for the Enterprise?

If you're counting, that's 2 years of mileage out of Oddpost.
