Microsoft’s entry into the cross-browser media player category has received a warm reception from CBS Television, which will use it as part of a community-generated content project for a network of local websites.

I’m hearing a ton of rumors of what’s coming to Mix07 next week in Las Vegas. I’ll be there Monday. Feel free to throw a piece of fruit as you head into the hall. I’ll be doing hallway cam out with Loren Heiny.

Anyway, here’s what we MIGHT see. How about you, what do you think Microsoft will show off?

Nick Hodge reports that Mike Arrington, of TechCrunch, will interview Ray Ozzie on stage at Mix07.

Michael Gartenberg joins Microsoft. Jeff’s helping to put together an interesting team!

Oh, and Microsoft’s Mix07 conference (which is planned in the group that Jeff is a part of) is getting more and more interesting too. I’ll be there.

I wonder what Ray Ozzie will introduce there. The silence from Ray lately is getting deafening.
