Finally into the Office 365 Beta Program

imageIt seems that Microsoft has done another massive push into the Office 365 Beta program. So, yesterday, after months of waiting, I was finally able to get in. I most likely not be using this blog to market off the benefits (you can find those here: Top benefits), but rather, share my observations.

One neat thing which I did not expect… the Developer Dashboard is part of O365!

I thought that was a pretty cool inclusion they did for this. After all, this is a hosted version of SharePoint, and they are using FBA to connect to what I can assume is an LDAP database to host accounts.

Anyhow, more information and observations to come… hopefully some interesting stuff.

At the very least, I now have a *.sharepoint.com subdomain… http://gvaro.sharepoint.com. That’s just cool.
