Those of you interested in tracking what MS is up to in what Microsoft is up to in terms of registered domains surrounding the word "Live," I've built this list tonight. Most currently resolve to the Live.com site.

nice work mate altough i didnt see the Windows Live Drive domain..:/ did you forget it or its on purpose? |
Thanks David. Coming from you that means a lot. As I said, it is not a complete list. Something I tossed together in a few minutes using a couple of databases. Your suggestion is excellent and has been added. with a thanks to D.H. :-)
I've also gone on to add several more domains. Like windowslivevoip.com. That said, this is list is far from complete. |
thanks mate.. and im glad i helped you :) |
about Windows Live Drive: drive.live.com does work!!! it just get a bounch of redirections and then got stuck. (it even has the "Continue" redirection) |
as I stated on the post, most of the domains I listed are registered but either are dead or redirect. This list, as the moment, is purely for CI purposes. |
[Off topic] Well, well, check this out: http://www.googledrive.com/ . It has the looks but... |
Art-One – it first showed me the "Contact Us" link.. and the entire site.. i though GDrive has finally been launched.. too bad it didnt :(
Gary – got it :) |
They are copying the complete look & feel from Google. Only at the two links beneath the page you can see that it's from someone other... How long will this live? Maybe we should make a game of it & post or guesses here ;-) |
Perhaps it's gone already?
: When I go to googledrive.com/ http://www.googledrive.com/
I see a page of ads and a bunch of pop-ups.. Srceen cap: http://mystuff.ask.com/public/gary8084/folders/Images
The domain is registered to a company at West Indies. Registered in March of this year. |
What's the difference between MyStuff and MyWeb 2.0? |
MyWeb 2.0 is only for bookmarks right (and it's by Yahoo) and I guess MyStuff saves Photos too.
I dunno, I've never actually used them. |
MyWeb 2.0 is from Yahoo. My Stuff is from Ask. Two different companies, two different services.
My Stuff formerly My Jeeves has been online since September 2004.
MyWeb has been online since April 2005 with My Web 2.0 coming two months later. |
