Live Mesh: It's alive!

[JMH]

One of the questions about Microsoft I get most often is whatever happened to Live Mesh.

Yes, it’s still in beta. But no one talks about it any more. Are more updates coming? Is it being supplanted by other technology? I’ve tried asking quite a few Softies — even Chief Software Architect Ray Ozzie, who made Live Mesh his pet project — to no avail.

But just when I was about to give up hope and add Live Mesh to my Microsoft deadpool, look what surfaced over on LiveSide.Net. On February 22, LiveSide posted a bunch of new screen shots (via CNbeta.com) and information about some of the long-awaited Windows Live Wave 4 services. Live Mesh — which may be renamed officially to Windows Live Sync, according to Liveside’s information — is what I found most interesting.

Hmmm...I was kind of looking at Live Mesh from a cellphone point of view (backups, sync's), but decided to leave it alone. Was some interesting stuff though. I might give it another look.

Thanks.

Excellent! I've been using mesh for a few months and I'm impressed. I wish the RDC part had more options though.
