Microsoft Live Morphs into Social Network
paidContent.org is among a number of sources this week discussion the metamorphosis of Microsoft Live from, well, whatever it was before into a full blown social network-portal-platform thingy.
You can't get Facebook or MySpace at your MS Live page. But you can get Flickr, LinkedIn, iLike, Pandora, Photobucket, Twitter, WordPress and Yelp – along with all the native Microsoft apps. TechCrunch says that MS Live has has done is "exactly what Yahoo has been talking about for over a year now – leveraging social connections that already exist (Yahoo is using email, Microsoft is using Messenger) and doing a lot more with it."
If you're already IMing with Microsoft, you're bound to love the new page at Live.com.
