Microsoft has introduced a brand new logo for Windows. For Microsoft there's a lot riding on its highly anticipated Windows 8 operating system.
Even with such a following Microsoft is dumping Windows Live as "Windows Live services and apps were built on versions of Windows that were simply not designed to be connected to a cloud service for anything other than updates which created some amount of customer confusion."
The software company is aiming to sort out these issues with the launch of Windows 8 which will "provides us with an opportunity to re-imagine our approach to services and software and to design them to be a seamless part of the Windows experience, accessible in Windows desktop apps, Windows Metro style apps, standard web browsers, and on mobile devices."
