Back again with some great news and more updates
Unbelievably it’s been over 6 months since we’ve blogged on live.com. The lull is not intended, but can be attributed to the fact that the team is diligently working on strategic customer focused products for the next wave of my.live.com.
Microsoft Online Services Division released a few phenomenal products and had a terrific quarter. The Live Search team revolutionized search and released the “new live search” for a whole new online search experience. We heard the feedback from our customers about real-time traffic re-routing and delivered it as part of this release. It also includes many more breath-taking visualizations and enhancements. Also did you know, you can now talk to “Live-search” on your mobile and it will fetch you the results in a jiffy! The live.com team personally urges everyone to checkout this feature on their mobile handsets… Check here for more details of the new live search.
Considering obvious advantages of co-branding arrangements that associates a single product or service with more than one brand name, partners.live.com team worked closely with some of our partners to foster Live.com's flexible architecture to create co-branded portals. In doing so, we provided our partners with:
- Cobranded URL
- Flexible Logo, Jewel, and page structure
- Customized templates and tabs
- Customized Folders, Feeds, gadgets
We’ve launched the following co-branded live.com pages so far:
Qwest – Launched 07/02/2007 - qwest.live.com
Verizon – Launched 08/01/2007 - verizon.live.com
Lenovo – Updated 10/31/2007 - lenovo.live.com
The Windows Live Product Suite made its official debut earlier this month, delivering a comprehensive array of new and updated services. The integration of the products is really cool, giving you the ability to edit pictures in Windows Live Photo Gallery, share them on Windows Live Spaces, e-mail them directly to family and friends in Windows Live Mail, or put them into your blog via Windows Live Writer – all quickly and with just a few clicks.
The full suite includes:
· Windows Live Mail
· Windows Live Messenger
· Windows Live Photo Gallery
· Windows Live Writer
· Windows Live Toolbar
· Family Safety from Windows Live OneCare
Installation is easy and offers the option of installing the full collection of products, or selecting only the ones you need. Find out more and download Windows Live at http://www.windowslive.com/default.html
