Microsoft may expand Web-based offerings
Seattle PI | at | by Mike
Microsoft is widely expected to announce on Tuesday further forays into software and services that can be accessed over the Internet - a growing competitive arena that some say could eventually threaten Microsoft's biggest cash cows.
The Redmond-based software behemoth is facing increasing competition from companies such as Google Inc. and Yahoo Inc., which offer an array of free consumer services, and Salesforce.com and NetSuite Inc., which have had success with Web-based business offerings.
