Has anyone noticed the new Live.com?

WTF? Do I have some secret beta version or something?

Rudy, can you switch to US and tell me how it looks? Thanks

I swear that the pics aren't fake. I can also make a video and show proof.

I get the page you're getting when I switch to US. To me it looks like an promotion/advertisement and not a redesign (like the link at the top left that takes you there: http://farecast.live.com/deals/weekend-dea...s.do?cid=11018)

I get the same background picture as you when I changed it to U.S. But I don't get the same menu as you though. Overall, it looks the same as the local one.

What link at the top you talking about?

For me the tour thingy takes me to a tour, the msn link takes me to msn.com, the windows live takes me to home.live.com and the others take me to where they suppose to take me.

So, wtf is happening to my Live.com?!

That looks exactly like Kumo, except it has the Live Search logo. That is odd! Do you happen to know if it has some of the new features of Kumo, or just the design? Maybe they're testing it out on the servers they use for the public... I can't think of any other reason :p

If I change my market to the United States, it's exactly the same as my current Live Search (even with the blue header), I just have the same background picture as your 'Kumo' type Live Search...

using chrome... live.com isnt loading

using IE7 ... i get this:

it has 'highlights' across different parts of the picture which show when you mouse over them, like this one in the picture

That's what I get when I use Chrome and switch to the 'United States' market. I haven't tried it in any other browser.

This is just the normal Live Search how it shows in the US. It's been like this for around a year - maybe a little bit more or less.

What the hell?

It looks like this for me:

The thingy where you select what you wanna search has been redesigned. Plus the background is now gray.

And here's a search results page:

WTF?

That does indeed resemble the Kumo beta. I'm using IE8 and my region is set to the U.S. and I'm not getting that design. I've pinged some folks at Microsoft to see what's up with this.

    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.
    • That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,
