RogueSpear Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Perhaps I "don't get it", but I really fail to see what's so great about all of the this new Live stuff. I've been using Windows Live Messenger for a while and hardly notice any difference in what it can do or how, with possibly the exception of the sharing folders feature.Nothing else about this new marketing campaign has really overwhelmed me either.
