Microsoft Works 9 may also someday be available as a Microsoft-hosted low-end productivity service, possibly through the company’s Live services, which would put it head-to-head with Google Docs & Spreadsheets and Zoho. But for the moment, Works 9 will be limited to the desktop.

Welcome to MUGH Blog

Geetesh Bajaj — Mon, 30 Jul 2007 11:40:00 +0000

We started with user groups, and we met in various places in Hyderabad and beyond. Yet, those few hours provide us with a little time -- and there's so much inspiration in that time!

That sort of inspiration evolves into knowledge -- knowledge that deserves to be shared, expressed, and maybe just thought aloud? And so we decided to evolve the MUGH site to a blog. You'll notice we kept the other stuff, and you can access it from all pages (see the navbar on the top).

A blog platform allows us the put up content quick, when it is needed most, and it's also democratic because you can comment. And we are always open to hearing from you.

So do bookmark this page -- and we'll catch up with you!
