Quote – Just How Many Windows Live Services Are There: Microsoft Watch
“Microsoft officials say there are 20 Windows Live services available in beta and/or final versions. But it looks like the real count is in excess of 40. And that’s not including a number of Live services which Microsoft has yet to acknowledge, but sources say are in the pipeline. There are more Windows Live services than meet the eye.”
Oh Mary 
 So naive… but she’s not wrong, and that’s coming from a semi-Microsoft official. September’s gonna be a nice squishy month for you Live addicts… pay special attention to which categories this entry lies in… there’s a lot of them 
Edit: don’t ask me to go into specifics, you know I can’t. Just bide your time, sit quietly and I’ll let you know as soon as things become available – I’m just stirring hype in this entry.
Edit: As of 20th August, there are officially 42 Windows Live services in total.

I *WORK* at Microsoft and I have lost count of them. They’re over at RedWest anyway though — with the fancy rock garden and waterfalls
