After years of struggles and market-share loss for many of its core offers, Microsoft is reorganizing. Here's Ballmer's memo to the staff.
The "One Microsoft" vision is meant to fit the way the world has changed around Microsoft. Skepticism abounds: GigaOm, Forbes, TheVerge.
With Coburn Ventures' Brynne Thompson, let's discuss:
- Do you agree with Ballmer's vision? Positives? Negatives?
- What would you do if you were in charge? (Remember our If You Were Emperor? call.)
- Where do you think Microsoft goes from here?
As always, an IRC chat will be available during the call at #yitan.
We tweet as

#yitan as our hashtag). Please follow us on Twitter. This page is on the web
