Just as Microsoft chief software architect Ray Ozzie is preparing to step down, he's leaving the software giant with a farewell memo outlining where the "Post-PC" world is headed. Titled "Dawn of a New Day," it comes across as a dire warning for Microsoft to move faster away from its dependence on the PC towards "continuous services" in the cloud available across a wide array of "connected devices."
Ozzie has hit upon some of these themes before, starting with a big-think memo five years ago called "The Internet Services Disruption." Certainly his original concept of Microsoft Mesh was very much in this vein of syncing data across devices and the cloud. But Mesh has been years in the making, and is only now beginning to see the light of day in limited ways.
