Windows Live Groups is an upcoming service by Microsoft as part of its Windows Live range of services that enable users to create their social groups for sharing, discussion and coordination.
The service will allow users form their own community groups, similar to the way Facebook Groups function, allowing members of the group to participate in group discussions. In addition, Windows Live Groups integrates with the following Windows Live services to provide collaboration and sharing features:
- Windows Live Calendar provides a group calendar function which allows all members of the Group to add or keep track of calendar events for their Group
- Windows Live Messenger allow users to create Groups (not to be confused with "categories" in Messenger) in their contact list and start conversations with these Groups
- Windows Live SkyDrive provides members of the Group to upload and share their files and documents for others in the Group to download
- Windows Live Photos allow members of the Group to upload and share their photos with each other
- Windows Live Hotmail provides users to send mass group e-mail messages to all members of a particular Group they are part of
Windows Live Groups is expected to be released on November 17, 2008 and will be replacing MSN Groups on February 21, 2009.[1]
