Microsoft announces live.com

Microsoft are currently announcing some new services, one of which is live.com. errr….isn’t this start.com, with added email? I can sign in with my Passprt so it recognises me. Iit currently only works in IE (although Firefox appears to be coming soon) I can add feeds (no mention of RSS) and a few widgets, such as weather, a clock and horoscopes. (Nothing different to MyYahoo yet then.) It appers to offer UK focused feeds only by default for me, based on my recorded location. However, we are also going to get Windows Live and Office Live, which make it far more interesting. Via Dave Winer. Crunch Notes has great notes onthe talk
