Web-based tool set makes Windows Live

The Hindu

Special Correspondent 

Bangalore: Microsoft last week joined the trend to put
more and more personal computer applications on the
Web — rather than taking up space on users’ hard
disks. 

It has integrated almost a dozen applications geared
for Windows software users under the brand name
Windows Live — and made them available as a single
130-megabyte download. 

Package 

The package includes a multiple e-mail accounts
integrator; an instant messenger; photo-sharing and
management tools; software to help users publish blogs
and to enable parents to set browsing limits on
individual family members. 

Also included is an event-planning service as well as
specific browsing options for mobile phone users. 

The family-friendly features are aimed at parents who
agonise over the dangers lurking on the Web — yet are
loath to hamstring their children’s creative
Net-enabled pursuits. The Windows Live features can be
mixed-and-matched to create a personalised package at
