Dear Windows Live Spaces customer,

Important changes are coming to your Spaces account that affect you and will require you to choose an option that is right for you. We are very excited to announce our collaboration with a premier and innovative blogging service, WordPress.com, to offer you an upgraded blogging experience. We'll help you migrate your current Windows Live Spaces blog to WordPress.com or you can download it to save for later. You should know that On 16th March 2011 your current space will close.

With the new release of Windows Live services, we've made a series of changes and improvements across our products. We chose to partner to provide our users with a fantastic blogging solution. However, we realise the changes will have an impact on you - this email aims to address any concerns you may have.

Why is this happening?

Our customers have asked for richer blog functionality including an integrated statistics system, continuous saving of drafts and improvements to spam-fighting technology. To deliver the best possible blogging experience, we are collaborating with WordPress.com to provide their free service to you. For those of you that already have a blog on Windows Live Spaces, we will make it easier for you to get started while helping you move what you've already built up on Spaces.

What is the timeline?

Starting at the end of September 2010, when you visit your Windows Live Space you'll be given the opportunity to upgrade your blog by migrating it to WordPress.com and to download your content to save for later.
As of 4th January 2011, you won't be able to make changes to your Spaces blog, but you can continue to review past posts, download your content to save for later and upgrade your blog to WordPress.com.
On 16th March 2011 Windows Live Spaces will close and you will not be able to access or migrate your blog on Spaces.

What you need to do before Windows Live Spaces closes

    Upgrade your blog by migrating to WordPress.com - We will provide a simple way to move your blog posts and comments to WordPress.com. Download your blog – You can download your old posts to keep a copy with you. You can also do this and then migrate to WordPress.com. Delete your space - If you decide that you do not want to have a space anymore, you have the option to delete it permanently. If you want to save your content, please make sure to do that before deleting your space. If you can't decide, take some time – Over the next few months, Windows Live Spaces will continue to be accessible while you make your decision. But we're very excited about what you can do on WordPress.com and hope you'll decide to take advantage of this improved blogging experience. Note: some content such as gadgets, guestbook, lists, notes and draft posts won't be migrated. See FAQs for more info on how to preserve this type of content.

What you can expect by moving to WordPress.com

All of your posts, comments and links will transfer, and you will have the option to share your blogging updates with your Messenger friends.

On WordPress.com, you'll get tools to help you track how your blog is doing and who's visiting. You'll get tagging that enables people to find you, and for you to find like-minded people. It includes great blog comment functionality, and trackback spam prevention to help keep your experience clean. Take a look at more.

Intel buys McAfee

Intel buys McAfee, has hardware security in the crosshairs

 

This morning, Intel announced in a press release that they will be purchasing the computer security giant McAfee to the tune of $7.68 billion. According the release, Intel wants to integrate security as part of their overarching strategy in “in energy-efficient performance and Internet connectivity.” However, McAfee is by no means a struggling company financially. They enjoyed double digit multi-year growth and 80% gross margins last year, and despite a fairly large faux pas a while back concerning a certain update that did a certain amount of damage to a certain large amount of computers globally, they definitely aren’t in need of being acquired. The move is a strategic one for Intel. Getting into the hardware based security business is something that needs to done, says Intel senior vice president Renee James.

“Hardware-enhanced security will lead to breakthroughs in effectively countering the increasingly sophisticated threats of today and tomorrow. This acquisition is consistent with our software and services strategy to deliver an outstanding computing experience in fast-growing business areas, especially around the move to wireless mobility.”

Dave DeWalt, President and CEO of McAfee, also believes that the partnership will increase their ability to serve their customers.

“The cyber threat landscape has changed dramatically over the past few years, with millions of new threats appearing every month. We believe this acquisition will result in our ability to deliver a safer, more secure and trusted Internet-enabled device experience.”

This is another big step in the direction of platform dominance for Intel. Since their humble beginnings as a chipmaker in mid-20th century, Intel has grown to dominate other areas of computing, like network Interface cards, integrated graphics chipsets, and parallel computing solutions. Acquiring McAfee will certainly go a long way in pursuing dominance in the hardware based security field.

Windows Live Essentials Beta is available now!


It's here! Hot on the heels of the Hotmail roll-out, the new Windows Live Essentials is now available for public beta testing. Windows Live Essentials beta requires Windows Vista or Windows 7, and is available in English, French, Dutch, Japanese, Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, or Spanish.  Get it here!

As previously announced, this release of Essentials is focused on two things: connecting Windows 7 to the cloud services you already use, and making everyday tasks simpler, so that you can do more on your PC.

Connecting Windows 7 to the cloud

We’ve designed Essentials to connect your Windows experience to the web services you already use – not just the ones from Microsoft. The new betas of Windows Live Photo Gallery, Movie Maker, Mail, Writer, and Messenger connect to photo and video sharing (SkyDrive, Flickr, YouTube, Facebook, SmugMug), social networking (Facebook, MySpace, Linkedin), email (Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo! Mail), blogging (Spaces, WordPress, Blogger), and document productivity (Office Web Apps) services. And the new Windows Live Sync keeps your files synchronized across multiple PCs and in the cloud.  You can even directly access your PC over the web with Sync's new remote desktop feature.

Making everyday tasks simpler and enabling new possibilities

People like to get creative on their PCs as much as they like seeing what everyone else has been up to. Whether it’s Retouch, Panoramic Stitch, or Photo Fuse in Photo Gallery, Auto Movie in Movie Maker, or photo email in the new Windows Live Mail, we think you’ll be excited by the new additions to Essentials that make advanced tasks, well, easy. If you haven’t yet tried Photo Fuse to merge together the best of several photos, it’s a lot of fun.

We hope you’ll enjoy the new Essentials beta. Leave us a comment and let us know what you think!
