It could be the weather. And it certainly could be the royal family. Or Big Ben. And it could as well be the British humor. Well judge for yourselves... But the fact of the matter is that the 2007 Microsoft Office System is on a whole different level in the United Kingdom. I am not kidding in the least. Just last week I have come across a very interesting approach to marketing Office 2007 in the UK. A fresh and funny collection of videos applauding Office 2007 can be accessed via the New Day, New Office website for Microsoft Office United Kingdom.

But the British division of Office did not stop at this. They are simply taking it one step further with its new day campaign. Microsoft will actually ease your way to work, provided that you work in the British capital.

"During April London commuters will be offered the chance of a free cab journey to work-making their journey to work easier. For four weeks beginning April 10th, 7:30-9:30am Microsoft will offer free cab journeys within zones 1 & 2. Commuters need simply to look for the 2007 Office branded cabs, climb aboard and ease into their day. Once in the taxi they will be handed a postcard offering a free trial of 2007 Office. By following the provided link commuters can begin to experience the tools that will make each work day better," revealed Darren Strange, the UK Product Manager for the 2007 Microsoft Office system.

Not to shabby, if I dare say so! Like Strange said, just jump aboard the 2007 Office branded cabs. It's free. With four weeks of free travels you could just save enough money for a 2007 Office suite.
