Singh Pall: Real-time communications is a capability that Microsoft and the industry are going to focus on for at least the next 10 years. If you look at the focus of productivity in enterprise applications to date, the work has been mostly about bringing data together, and it is about having people individually create, access, modify and archive data. As we move forward, there is an increasing need for people to work together on the different aspects of data and documents. By this, I mean several people authoring, editing and reviewing a document at the same time. All of these activities require a framework in which multiple people, sitting in different locations, can communicate and collaborate together in a seamless way. Real-time communications is the technology that makes that possible.
