Microsoft to update Windows Live to become a central online hub

Software giant Microsoft is set to launch an updated Windows Live web services to make it a central hub for online activities.

The updated service would feature updates that would make it easier for the user to communicate, collaborate and share information.

Microsoft Corporate Vice President Chris Jones said in a statement: “Now Windows Live takes care of that, with an integrated personal communication service that works across the Web with optimized experiences on the PC and mobile phone.”

He added: “Think of Windows Live as the single place where people using our e-mail, messaging and photo-sharing services can stay connected”.

They are collaborating with several third party services for this update. The partners include Flickr, LinkedIn, Pandora, Photobucket, Twitter, WordPress and Yelp.

PhotoBucket President Alex Welch added on their partnership with Microsoft: “As Windows Live customers share photos, update their profiles, and write reviews, these activities will automatically publish to their Windows Live network, enabling new experiences for users that would not otherwise be possible.”
