More Information on Microsoft Campus Plans (Internal Only, Sorry)
If you happen to be on the Microsoft corporate network, there is more information about Microsoft's future campus plans. I'm probably not supposed to post a URL directly, so do the following:- Go to the main internal website.
- Search for "Workplace Advantage FAQ" (no double-quotes in the search box).
- Click on the third item returned (the one whose title is a question) -- it's a Word FAQ document.
- Click on the "WPA Research" link near the bottom of page 1.
- Click on the "Redmond Master Plan" link on the left.
Some of the other drawings on that "Master Plan" page show a potential 520 overpass drawn as a dotted line (look at the last drawing on the page, or the third from last).
You can also go back to the main internal website, search for "New Work Style", and watch the video that is returned as the first item, for a peek at Microsoft's view of a future workspace. Whatever you think of this, you have to admit Microsoft is not standing still and waiting for the future to come to us. There is some progressive thinking going on here.

Searching for "Redmond Master Plan" on the same site will provide the target link as the second result as well. :)

i don't think cubicles (aka open workspaces) are forward thinking at all!

Just curious... going to http://beta.search.msn.com and searching for "Workplace Advantage FAQ" you find this page as your first result :)
