Microsoft previewed two new software-based service offerings called Windows Live™ and Microsoft Office Live. Designed to deliver rich and seamless experiences to individuals and small businesses, the new offerings combine the power of software plus services to provide compelling enhancements to Microsoft Windows® and Microsoft Office products.
In particular, Windows Live helps bring together all the elements of an individual’s digital world while Office Live helps small companies do business online. In the same way that Xbox Live® enhanced the value of Xbox® by marrying the power of the Internet with the richness of software and hardware, these new offerings will deliver similar value to customers.
