Microsoft Announces Major Reorganization

SEATTLE - Microsoft Corp. is reorganizing its corporate structure and giving one of its newest executives broader powers in an effort to better compete against its rivals, including Google Inc. and Yahoo Inc.

The corporate changes announced Tuesday are designed in part to help Microsoft move toward more Internet-based service offerings, which have been championed by those competitors and are seen by some as a serious threat to Microsoft's dominant Windows operating system. The moves also are aimed at helping the company become more nimble.

Actually, they really need help.

Microsoft are not innovators.

It's funny to watch actually.

That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
