New Live.com goes live

[Jordan M.]

Just a few minutes ago, the new Live.com (now featuring Flair/Vapor!) went live. As mentioned last week, this upgrade mainly focuses on the new UI and first-run experience. Now it is much easier to get rolling with customized content right from the start.

You can now customize your different pages with uniquely colored Flair headers, to differentiate your types of content. Enjoy!

The page is similer to www.live-int.com

[Smigit]

Man awesome. Ive preferred the msn search for some time over others but didnt like the long URL. This sites finally at a point where I think I can use it as my primary engine. Its so quick and you can hide all the crap there used to be. Awesome.

Yeah it looks pretty nice actually. I still think I'll be sticking with my google homepage for the moment though.

[Tech_Dude_5000]

Google is the best Search engunie ever.

glad to see the windows live page is improveing.

[viciv]

awesome! thanks for the news

[Wrezal]

that's cool but ofcourse msn search cant beat google :p

[Fourjays Veteran]

Looks very nice, but still gives rubbish results compared to google and yahoo from the couple of tests I did...

Might be a case of time though, before it starts giving decent results.

That's this topic ya noob ;)

I would imagine the duplicate threads were merged?

The new Live.com looks nice, but I will stick with Google for now :)

[Brian M. Veteran]

Yeah im sticking with google - MSN Search results have never compared to those of google :)

This might just be me, but it looks just like the old live.com, with a new header image and logo - hardly a regeneration :D (this may be just me though).

EDIT: although i do say that its one of the first websites to change its weather thing to London just by my IP (i havent signed into it) - on the default page.

Love it. Still the one thing that really bugs me;

hi Aaron.

Should be

Hi Aaron or

hi aaron

Also the image search needs a small, medium and large filter.

I think thats done to make it seem more user friendly by being informal? :\

Its the lack of capitilastion that bothers me.

Yeh, thats becuase thats exactly what it is! It's just a new look. I think the head of this was somewhat misleading. As for the search results returned, I think they suck. Not a patch on google.

But the RSS and gadget stuff is awesome, and I personally prefer the site to google's alternative

Same here

[ToneKnee]

One thing what bugs me is SPEED!!! Really, its slow responsive. Atleast with Google is virtually instant.

[L3thal Veteran]

Its looking nice, though runs a bit on the slow side.
