Microsoft on Blogging

Microsoft's MSN division is expected to take the wraps off its MSN Spaces blogging service this week.

MSN Spaces is positioning itself as a direct competitor to blog-creation and hosting tools, such as Blogger, Blog*Spot, LiveJournal and TypePad. Microsoft plans to also pitch MSN Spaces as a way to allow users to more easily share photo albums and music lists as well.

Interesting move and not surprising given Google's recent activities.

Did you know that more than 1,000 Microsoft employees currently have a blog?
