A preview of Windows Live for Windows 8

The Windows Live team has been building applications and services with Windows 8 in mind. In particular, the idea is centred around cloud services and Metro style UI.

The steps taken by Windows Live are:

• Enhancing our Live service for sync across your PCs
• Making a SkyDrive available to every Windows 8 and Windows Phone customer
• Building a new suite of Metro style apps for communications and sharing
• And enabling app developers to use Live and SkyDrive through the Live SDK

For a demonstration of how Live services integrate into Windows 8, watch the video below:
