Microsoft is offering a free trial of its latest Web building software called Microsoft Expression-Web. The trial version can be used for 60 days and is fully functional.

Though I was unable to find anything that specifically made mention of this, I believe that Expression-Web software is the replacement for FrontPage. In looking at the Office Web site, I had noticed that there was no 2007 version of FrontPage. And in doing a quick Google search, it does seem that Microsoft has dropped FrontPage completely.

I won’t bore you with the glowing details of what Microsoft says that Expression-Web will do for you. Most of us realize that most of what all software manufacturers say about their products is overstated. And the words ‘user friendly’ usually indicate to us that we are going to be spending a lot of time learning this new product.

Anyway, if you wish to try this new software, a trial version is available here. And if you do give it a whirl, I would enjoy hearing your thoughts on how well or not so well it worked for you.

Later.
