Birth of Windows Live

As the press has started covering, we’re launching the next evolution of Microsoft services under the umbrella of “Live” services. Today you’ll be able to preview the beta of Windows Live by checking out some of the following services:

  • www.live.com – our customizable portal, may remind you a bit of start.com
  • ideas.live.com – a central site where you can participate and register for Windows Live Betas
  • safety.live.com – a free full service tool to ensure the health of your PC
  • mail.live.com – users of the Mail Beta may recognize this as our Kahuna release of web mail
  • favorites.live.com – our roaming favorites service (which happens to use FireAnt, the underlying technology of Kahuna)

And this is only the start! During the press event today, we demoed these very cool services, all which will be in your hands over the next days, weeks and months.
