Microsoft finishes the Web based version of Office Communicator.

Microsoft wraps up Web IM for the office - This is one of those things I got to see a couple of weeks ago in Seattle. I have to say they did a nice job, the thing I really like is that it doesn't use ActiveX or any Java applets, which means they have a really broad support of different browsers, and it looks almost identical to the full client version. Technically it's done with AJAX (although it doesn't use the XML bit). I often wish STLinks was using AJAX versus the hidden Java applet.

I agree....this is cool...but so far with the client have seen I dont see the way to share apps or send files? Did you? Also is anyone using LCS yet? and with a large user community. Im really supirised nobody commented on this as Applets and active X are a real pain with locked down desktops.
