Exciting updates to Windows Live are coming soon
Today we announced some big updates to Windows Live to the world. You can read the official announcement on the
Windows Live team blog. We’ve been working on these updates for about a year now, and we’re very excited to be able to share them with you.
Over the next few weeks we’ll be talking about some of the cool stuff that we’ll be shipping in Spaces and the rest of Windows Live, but we wanted to give you a quick taste of things to come. Here are just a few of our favorite new things:
A fantastic new photo sharing service that includes a new slideshow view, full-resolution images, and a beautiful new management and viewing experience. The new photos site will combine all of your Spaces and SkyDrive photo albums in one place, and will still integrate with your space through the photos module.
Blogging and personalization improvements for your space that give you more control over your page, a better looking site, and great photos integration.
A brand new profile experience that lets you show off how cool you are, while making it easy for your friends to quickly see what you’ve been up to recently.
A great new home page that pulls together what your friends are doing both in Windows Live and on other websites, as well letting you catch up on e-mail, view your calendar, and see the comments people have left for you.
We’ve built a lot of cool stuff and we’re really eager to share it all with you. Let us know what you think in the comments, and look forward to even more details in subsequent posts.
