Initial thoughts and comments

OfficeLive lives! These are comments about my experiences with the beta. It's the basic (MicroNaut name: Live Basics) version--no bells and whistles.

Groans & Grunts (complaints):

Some things cannot be changed (edited) except by starting over again. For instance, this blog has moved, and changing a link meant adding a new one and deleting the old.

A little slow. (I'm running a 166Mh Pentium and W98 over a dialup (not by choice)), and making a simple word change to a page can be glacial.

Kudos:

No need to fool with Frontpage and/or ftp. You really are making changes online and in real time. No HTML knowledge necessary. In fact, a little HTML familiarity may be a handicap, because you may know what you want to do, but there's no way to access the underlying code anyway.
