Its been just over 2 weeks since I updated the look of My Microsoft Life and I want to know what feedback you might have. I have tweaked a few things this morning to improve the site a little.

I do plan to add an archive page to the site soon to allow you find and read through past articles much easier, you can thank @WinObs for that suggestion.

So let me know what issues you might have with the site and I’ll try my best to point out why you are wrong. No, seriously I’ll try and work out the issues to improve the site.

My only issue is the typo on the ‘typography and squares’ tile below (Recommended websites).

Oh good spot, will edit that soon

The website is nice but a little confusing since its mostly text, but seeing that this is exactly the approach of “Metro” which lets the content take centerstage, I can see the allure. After figuring out the “tags” on the articles and that different front size diferentiates each post, I get around fine. Perhaps the titles could be highlighted instead of the tags? Also the istarted something box at the bottom link doesn’t work. I ithink its missing the .com :)
All in all, I love the website.

I’ve got an idea to highlight the different articles on the homepage, I will play with it soon.

I’ve editted the link so it should work now.

"icons showing the synch status of files would be nice too, just like SVN, Drop Box, G Drive do :)"

"I have annother tip. You could have all your documents folder synced to skydrive if you right click the my documents folder and change the location of my documents to a folder within skydrive. That way when you change something in my documents folders it is also updated to skydrive. You can do this to sync between computers if you don't exceed the skydrive limit."

"Whta's about hardlinks (fsutil....) - so you can have yor original useful file structure and those folders, which should be synced, as hardlinks in the skydrive-structure? However, Live Mesh rules and I am also sad, that this good important difference to dropbox & Co - I can select, which folders of my structure should be synced - is now missing. "

"I think Microsoft is reinventing itself in a good way. Deep SkyDrive and Office integration while keeping everything in sync (tablets, desktop, laptop, phone) is a great value that I think should and will attract some people as well as part of the Enterprise sector"

"Wouldn't it be nice for the Windows Phone 7 app to have a back-up functionality? That you can back-up all (or a section of) your pictures, documents on your phone instead of the one-by-one approach."
