Over the next few years, Microsoft will continue to invest heavily in social computing and enterprise search on its Office SharePoint Server 2007 platform.
"We believe social computing is the next wave of collaboration," Kirk Koenigsbauer, Microsoft's general manager, Office Business Platform, said in a Webinar providing an update on SharePoint 2007.
"This is, and will continue to be, a big area we will innovate on," Koenigsbauer said.
Enterprise search will also become very important to business and is "one of the key reasons we invested big in SharePoint 2007 and in the acquisition of Fast," Koenigsbauer added.
