The Ray Ozzie Era at Microsoft has begun.
The man who assumed Bill Gates’ role of chief software architect unveiled a new blueprint for the company here this week, detailing plans to build upon Microsoft’s PC software legacy in an attempt to ensure the company’s place in the online world.
Just as Gates led Microsoft through the personal-computer revolution, Ozzie is trying to lead the company into a new period of “cloud computing” — in which programs are accessed on computers and devices as online services from remote data centers.
