Windows Live Folders Now 'SkyDrive'
8 Comments
Microsoft has renamed its online storage service from Windows Live Folders to Windows Live SkyDrive, concurrently adding support for those in the United Kingdom and India. The "SkyDrive" name is designed to indicate that stored files exist in the "cloud" of the Internet.
Alongside the name change, Microsoft has updated the Web-based service with a new user interface, thumbnail images, drag and drop support, and the ability to embed files and folders in other pages with some HTML code. Due to the URL change, previous links will need to be updated. Microsoft is accepting beta signups from the Windows Live SkyDrive Web site.
