Windows Live
Windows Live is a discontinued brand name for a set of web services and software products from Microsoft as part of their software plus services platform. Chief components under the brand name include web services (all of which are exposed through corresponding web apps), several computer programs that interact with the services, and specialized web services for mobile devices.〔 〕
According to Microsoft, Windows Live "is a way to extend the Windows user experience". As such, Windows Vista's welcome screen provides a link to download Windows Live Messenger or subscribe to Windows Live OneCare. Also, Windows Mail, Windows Photo Gallery and Windows Movie Maker were not offered with Windows 7 and became an exclusive part of Windows Live. Microsoft announced that Windows 8 will see Windows Live apps included right out of the box, and will include built-in synchronization technologies powered by SkyDrive. The Windows Live brand was phased out during August 2012, when Windows 8 was released to manufacturing. Active Windows Live services remained active but were gradually renamed.
In addition to Windows Live, which is mainly aimed at individuals,〔 there are other Microsoft properties branded as "Live", including Xbox LIVE (a multiplayer gaming and content delivery system for Xbox), Games for Windows - LIVE (multiplayer gaming service for Microsoft Windows) and Office Live. The latter was merged into Windows Live during the Wave 4 update. Microsoft merged Office Live into the Windows Live team in January 2009.
==History==
Windows Live was first announced on November 1, 2005. In its initial release, several Windows Live properties were rebranded and enhanced from Microsoft's MSN set of products and services. However, MSN still exists alongside Windows Live as a means of delivering content (as opposed to customized content and communications). In May 2012 Microsoft began renaming Windows Live services, partly in anticipation of Windows 8, which integrates many of the Windows Live products and services into the operating system.
