Windows Live

Today Microsoft announced a new collection of online applications. It’s live.com. You can view some photos of the event here.

Apparently Gates repeatedly used the term “live software”. If software isn’t live, what is it? “crashing all the time software”?

The site doesn’t work at all in Safari and there’s actually a notice at the top of the page telling Firefox users to be patient as support is coming soon.

I signed up for Windows Live Mail. It’s Microsoft’s new web mail replacement for Hotmail. When I get an invite to the beta release I’ll have a play with it and will post something about it here, assuming I can find a Windows machine of course.
