The updates are up now for anyone interested and while it does seem a lot like Facebook right now, there is a great deal of potential. Facebook is in it’s own world, but Live shows me when a friend writes a movie review on Flixster or adds an artist to his Pandora radio station. So long as they keep partnering with other services, you could eventually stay up with everything your friends are doing. Combine this with the fact that hotmail and messenger are already successful programs and you may have your one-stop shop for socializing on the web. Check it out and think of the potential.

Somebody needs to tell Microsoft that what has been done is not cutting edge any longer. And at the same time, they may want to make their site have an API that works in iPhones, Smart Phones and Palms. Not only are today’s users too busy to blog, but they are too busy to login with a computer a lot of times.

I checked Windows Live today and it doesn’t look like Facebook.

When will these new features appear?

The site says in a few weeks. YY
