A busy schedule for Microsoft this week

Lots of items on Microsoft's public agenda in the coming days. Highlights:

  • Bill Gates speaks Monday morning at Microsoft's SharePoint conference in Seattle. As part of the event, the company announced plans to expand its online offerings with subscription-based versions of Exchange Server and SharePoint Server for corporations.

  • Chris Liddell, Microsoft's chief financial officer, speaks Monday morning at the Morgan Stanley Technology Conference in California. Microsoft's pending Yahoo acquisition bid will no doubt be among the subjects on the minds of the attending investors, whether or not Liddell has any news to share. Webcast available here.

  • Steve Ballmer, Microsoft's chief executive, gives one of the keynote addresses Monday evening at the big CeBIT technology conference in Hanover, Germany.

  • Microsoft Research holds its TechFest event in Redmond on Tuesday. This is the annual science fair where Microsoft's researchers show some of their latest projects to the company's product groups and managers. Watch for coverage here.

  • Microsoft's Mix08 online-technology conference begins Wednesday in Las Vegas. Among other things, the conference is expected to bring news about Internet Explorer 8, the next version of the company's Web browser. Ray Ozzie, Microsoft's chief software architect, headlines the Wednesday morning agenda. Ballmer speaks Thursday. I'll be attending Mix and posting from the event.

    MSFT: DAILY TREND

    FEATURED COMMENT

    PictureI think taking a larger share of Facebook would be a good move. Facebook is preparing itself to be the platform of the web and this is exactly what MS needs. Also incorporating facebook services with outlook and hotmail could be extremely useful. Unfortunately, a complete buyout would put MS's name behind the service which could turn users away (as fickle as young people are) so, like the previous 250 million investment, it would need to be quiet."
