Windows Live out of beta
“Windows Live” is a suite of free online applications and services that Microsoft has been developing. Recently, the company declared it ready and took the beta tag off. It includes email, a manager for posting photos, and other things. It’s one of Microsoft’s ventures into Web 2.0. Microsoft has been talking about this project for a long time but has been very confusing in its description of exactly what “Windows Live” is. Mary Jo Foley writes:
Until recently, Microsoft has floundered badly when trying to explain exactly what Windows Live is and how Live services and Live software complement Windows. Last year, the Windows Live team was unveiling new services at a breakneck pace, but doing nothing to put them in context or explain when/how Microsoft planned to take them final.
She gives a number of details about what Windows Live is but I am still confused. If you would like to try it, the Microsoft link is here. If you do try it, please let us know what you think of it.
