pandurang nayak - November, 2007

Wednesday, November 14, 2007

I had been intending to blog about a bunch of changes in the Windows Live stack. Jani pointed me to this neat little application you can add to any website to have users of the website chat with anybody running Windows Live Messenger. So you see a little app on my blog's sidebar (if you are reading this using a RSS reader, click here) and if you chatted from the control, my Windows Live Messenger pops up the chat and lets me do instant messaging.

It took me 5 minutes to put this up on my blog - really that simple - go to http://settings.messenger.live.com/applications/CreateHtml.aspx to get one for yourself!

Among other updates, you can also get a @live.com ID for yourself (currently in certain geographies and very soon in most others including India) by going to http://www.windowslive.com/freshstart.html. You can also use tools to migrate your existing Live ID to the new one.
