MS-Watch | at | by Mike
Blogging looks to be the content king in Japan, or so says Redmond, as MSN preps a beta release of its blogging service for Japan only. Expanding its reach into new content services, Microsoft on Wednesday acknowledged that its MSN division will launch a beta of its blogging service next week. However, the new service will be offered only in Japan.
MSN officials said they have no information on when Microsoft plans to broaden the beta to the rest of the world. In addition, MSN also has not said when it plans to offer the service commercially.
