Well, Not "Chief" Exactly...

By now you've heard that Microsoft is buying Groove Networks and Ray Ozzie is slated to become a Microsoft CTO. Not the CTO, though. He'll be one of three “Chief” officers, along with David Vaskevitch (CTO, Business Platform) and Craig Mundie (CTO, Advanced Strategies & Policy). As such, he'll report direct to Bill Gates (not to Ballmer? Huh. But that's what they say.)
