For the past month or so Windows has teamed up with Sky and toured universities around the UK informing student just how great Windows 7 is and how they can access Sky through their PC. This is a great way to increase mindshare of Windows but there is much more to Windows Access All Areas [...]

Today Microsoft is thought to have unveiled a new look MSN for the UK, although I haven’t found any official word on this yet the the new look site will be going live at 8:30 PM. The new design for the site keeps the basic look, blue background and header with many links, but adds [...]

The past couple of days have been a little mad with Windows Live Wave 4 news but certainly in a good way with images yesterday of the Messenger app for iPhone and today lots of videos, images and news from Microsoft about what we can expect in the next version of Messenger. We now know [...]

Today I got access to Microsoft’s and Facebook’s new social productivity site Docs.com which I blogged about yesterday and I thought I would share with you some images of the new striped down Office online suite.

After some considerable time Microsoft have finally released the Facebook app for Zune HD devices to go along side the Twitter app. When looking at the app it does actually seem plausible that Microsoft delayed the release of the Facebook app for so long so it was released after its Windows Phone 7 Series announcement.

Bing has posted an article about how they and Microsoft are working with Facebook and the two points to note are that Bing is now powering the search for all 400m+ Facebook users and Microsoft will no longer serve ads for the social network. Its not a monumentally interesting post but if you look at [...]

Just a quick heads up about a new Facebook client for your PC or Mac from Microsoft, it looks absolutely fantastic; think Zune meets your favourite social network.
