Have you ever been working in Excel and you knew there was a complex formula you could use to makes things easier but you just couldn't think of (or didn't know) how to do it? Or maybe you were designing a brochure and you needed some help with the graphics or formatting.
In about 11 hours Microsoft will be launching their Windows Live Wave 2, which is a collection of applications offered at no cost. You can download the new installer now even though the "wave" of updated programs won't be released until later today.
I'm not sure if you should be getting your hopes up quite yet, but rumors have started to circulate around the Internet that Microsoft will be opening up the @live.com email addresses tomorrow for public registration. There is no official word from Microsoft that this will be happening, but the timing sounds about right.
It looks like Microsoft is pulling a Google and offering their most popular apps in a unified package. Well, it's not exactly like the Google Pack because Microsoft is only including their own homegrown programs, whereas Google also includes some third-party software (such as Norton and Skype).
Finally, there’s an update regarding the @live.com email addresses! Last year around this time, it was rumored that they were going to be released. We waited, and waited, and nothing ever came of it.
According to BetaNews, Microsoft is preparing to launch their Windows Live Hotmail service in the United States sometime in May. It has already been launched in India and Belguim, and other countries like France and the UK should expect it in the next few days.
What was originally meant to Hotmail, Microsoft has completed the re-branding for their new mail service(in beta) and now it’s officially Windows Live Hotmail. In February they made the announcement that they were going to bring together the best of both worlds, Windows Live Mail and Hotmail, and create a new name that would satisfy both old loyal users, and new users.
The line of Windows Live services that Microsoft has developed appeared to be catching on. Just as everybody was getting comfortable with the entire Live line like Windows Live Mail over Hotmail, or Windows Live Shopping over MSN Shopping, Microsoft decides they’re reverting back to old names. A week, ago, Microsoft announced that their mail service will officially be named Windows Live Hotmail which took many people by surprise.
We've been talking about Microsoft's new mail service for what seems like forever now. It was to be faster, simple, and safe. It was also meant to be a service that is to meet the demands of a wide variety of customers. It was meant to Hotmail.
