This afternoon, Google today began offering a personalised Start Page to users of Google Apps for Your Domain, the company's private-labeled email, IM, and calendar service for individuals and organisations that want to run Google software under their own Web address.

Also making news, just days after Microsoft released the Windows Vista code to manufacturing, the operating system was leaked to the Web. The final version of the developer's Office 2007 has also been posted to the Internet.

Is Google’s Web 2.0 play another blow to Microsoft? Will Vista’s leaking hurt the software developer’s consumer segment sales? Mail your comments:
