office.microsoft.com is home of Microsoft’s Office and provides information on various products like Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneNote, etc.

But now we are not sure whether Microsoft is going to just keep redirecting office.com to office website or Microsoft will host Office web applications. We have to wait and see.
