Alas Sneak wasn’t able to make it to Las Vegas for this week’s Microsoft Mix 07 event, where the world’s biggest and squarest software company tried to come over all street and give respect to the big Web 2.0 thing. Man.

Anyway, Sneak was keen to hear what keynote speaker Ray Ozzie had to say about Silverlight, Microsoft’s new rival to Adobe’s Flash. Ozzie, the inventor of Lotus Notes, was one of the pioneers of online collaboration and ought to be miles ahead of the Web 2.0 game. So Sneak zipped over to Ozzie’s blog on the Windows Live Spaces site to read his feed. Unfortunately, it hadn’t been updated since 1 April. And we’re not talking about last month, either: the last post (out of a grand total of 12) was submitted on 1 April 2006.

Yes, Sneak is reassured, Ozzie does indeed have a very clear idea of the future of Web 2.0. It obviously doesn’t include blogs on Windows Live Spaces.
