Sharepoint should have simple blogging features...

Scoble: “…appliances like these could disrupt Sharepoint's business. The Sharepoint team should take this very seriously. Sharepoint should add a few simple blogging features (for instance discoverability, RSS, permalinks).”

…and let’s say it together:

MICROSOFT OFFICE SHOULD ALSO ADD A FEW SIMPLE BLOGGING FEATURES.

MICROSOFT OFFICE SHOULD HAVE A “SAVE TO WEB” FUNCTION THAT LEVERAGES THE METAWEBLOG API.

NORMAL COMPUTER USING PEOPLE NEED AN EASY WAY TO GET THEIR STUFF ONLINE.

I’m not talking about Ecto, Blogjet or even Frontpage. Those are all web tools. I’m talking about personal content management tools - and what better place to start personal content management than within the tools that are most often used to create the content in the first place! Radio has a feature called “upstreaming” which is totally on the right track – but not simple enough. Rework upstreaming as  “Save to Web” for anything I want from my most used content production tools – like MSOffice – and then I think we’re definitely moving in the right direction.
