Windows Live Messenger - Bye Bye?
section: microsoft, for your questions: KezNews forum, 29.5.2007
Windows Live Messenger, Windows Live Mail and Windows Live Writer are the three core desktop products for Windows Live
But we have reason to suspect they’ll all be rebranded to one, large program - called “Windows Live Suite”.
Here are the reasons why we think it’ll happen…
1 -- All three programs are communication tools (IM, Blogs, e-Mail)
2 -- All three programs are being revamped to a new look (see Messenger 8.5)
3 -- All three programs are listed as one beta on Microsoft connect.
Perhaps we’re trying a wee bit too hard, but if this turns out to be the truth then either….
1. The consistency between products will create a usefull and effective solution for everybody….or, more likely…
2. It’ll create a mega-bloat product with more things to go wrong.
Either way, it looks like this could be a very interesting few months for Windows Live.
