Microsoft Update
Check out my latest SmallBizResource blog entry on what's wrong with Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager for e-mail marketing.
The fundamental flaw: Outlook 2007 doesn't let you customize the HTML in an e-mail message.
In other Microsoft small-business news, from March 19-23 the company will host a Small Business Summit featuring keynotes by Guy "No Longer an Apple Evangelist" Kawasaki , Julie "Baby Einstein" Clark and others. Sessions throughout the week focus on various aspects of running a small business, plus demos of Office 2007, Vista, and other upcoming products.
You can register for the event in Redmond, view the sessions through the Web, or show up at selected Regal cinemas or CompUSA stores to network with other small-business owners. Sign up by Wednesday for the chance to win a copy of Office 2007 Small Business or 10 hours on a private jet.
In keeping with the Outlook 2007 design strategy, it's a really special private jet. There are no windows in the cockpit, and the pilot and co-pilot can't actually see where they're going (at least not with their unreliable, non-standard eyes). But who needs eyes when you have user-friendly instrumentation panels designed for easier usage, and various controls and knobs covering virtually everything you'd ever need to fly a jet?
