Microsoft CESFest 09

Advertisement (Why?)

Tonight I will be attending Microsoft's CESFest 09 here in London, UK.

CESFest 09 will focus on Microsoft's CES announcements and more specifically the Windows Live and Facebook announcements. There will be two demonstrations and Microsoft will be streaming the event via Ustream.TV. The first demonstration is due to kick off at 7:20pm GMT (other timezones).

We expect to get some questions answered on the CES announcements, if you have any questions please leave them in the comments. We will try to Qik live from the demonstrations too.

What I'd really like to see is what kind of integration there will be with Facebook and the Windows Live suite. I've already noticed that you can have messenger update your status on Facebook with your personal message. I don't know if I'd ever use that as I do put some stupid silly messages in there sometimes and wouldn't want that as a status on Facebook. What about when you set messenger to display your music from your media players. Will that set your Facebook status as that song too? I'm looking forward to this and all that are coming up. Can't wait.

Awww, I had to go out, and by the time I got back, it had finished. Any chance to watch it on demand. Also what happened?
