The next version of Microsoft’s productivity suite, Works 9.0, will be available free and ad-supported, according to Bink.nu
For the time being, however, the new version of Works will be ad-funded, according to Satya Nadella, the newly minted Corporate Vice President of Microsoft’s Search & Advertising Platform Group. Nadella told me during an interview on July 27 that Microsoft recently released the new ad-funded version of Microsoft Works.
No official news on this yet, neither anything on a hosted version of the software.
