www.Live.com with login and email settings online
mailThe website live.com is Microsoft's Windows Live homepage, providing
access to Hotmail email accounts, the Windows Live Messenger program,
MSN news and entertainment and Skydrive, Windows Live's online document
storage system. The site operates differently depending on whether you
are a new visitor or are signed in with a current account.
For those visitors who already have a hotmail or live account, when
signed in, the site offers a number of features. First, it will give a
highlights section of your latest emails in your inbox. This can be
useful as it draws your attention to new emails. Below this there is a
box that prompts you to connect your other social networking accounts
for a truly integrated dashboard where you can monitor all your feeds
and messages. Following this is a feed of live.com related activity,
typically new statuses or photos. Secondly, current users can use this
hub to sign on to Microsoft's popular instant messaging program, Windows
Live Messenger, and view who is online. There is also a News headline
section where visitors can skim titles of the day's leading news
stories.
For those visiting the site who do not have a current Windows Live
account, users will be prompted to sign up for one. Whether or not an
email account is needed, the Windows Live account can be useful just in
order to access the features described above or to use the site as a hub
with which to integrate your feeds. For all users, the Skydrive
component, Windows Live's cloud computing offering provides the ability
to store a range of document types and sizes online for easy retrieval
from any computer around the world. This in itself may be a good reason
to sign up for a Windows Live account.
Old subscribers and new arrivals alike will find their visit to
www.live.com to be informative and entertaining. The hub or portal as
some may call it, offers users hands on control of communication,
documents and news.
