Picks
Software pick of the week: Outlook.com
Microsoft's replacement for Hotmail is a winner. I was happy switching from Gmail to Hotmail. But with Outlook.com, it's a no brainer, and the integration with Microsoft services--Office Web Apps, SkyDrive, Skype, and more--puts it over the top for anyone using Windows.
Tip of the week: Switch to Outlook.com the smart way

Enterprise pick of the week: Project Online
