First Looks at Microsoft's New "Live Mesh" Platform

technirvana writes "Microsoft's Live Mesh service launched today as an invite-only 'technology preview.' It is Microsoft's attempt to tie all of our data together. Live Mesh synchronizes data across multiple devices (currently just Windows computers, but theoretically it will extend to mobile and other devices in the future) as well as to a web desktop that exists in the cloud. It can sync data across devices used by a single users, as well as create shared spaces for multiple users." And since it's run by Microsoft, you know you can trust it.

desktop that exists in the cloud

First teh intarwebs was pipes. "I needs me some bigger pipes! Get me some T3 pipes in here!"

Then it was a series of tubes. Kind of like pipes but made of plastic and more flexible. "Get rid of that T3, Bob, we's gettin' TUBES! Call the cable tube ocmpany!"

Then it was a cloud, presumably after it went <a href=http://www.DamnItSomebodyFuckedUpUncyclopedia">up in smoke</a>.

OK, what do we get after clouds? Moonbeams?
