Rob Dolin, Program Manager for Windows Live, just announced over on the Windows Live Team Blog new Web Activities such as Facebook, Digg, and SmugMug will be hitting Windows Live next week. He also announced that MySpace, Hi5, and Tagged will join Facebook and LinkedIn as contact partners. These contact partners allow you to invite your friends to Windows Live and vice versa. And in the next few months, MySpace customers will be able to share updates and activities from MySpace on Windows Live. For more information – read Rob’s blog post and take a look at the Q&A with Brian Hall, General Manager for the Windows Live Business Group, over on PressPass.

Its great to see Microsoft working together with Facebook, LinkedIn and other websites. In this day and age the easier it is to connect to friends and colleagues the better.

Great work!

I've been waiting for these since Web Activities was first introduced.

Thanks to the Developer Team.

That sounds great. I'm looking forward to use this feature.

But I have a question, too: I cannot open the Windows-Live-Homepage with Firefox3. my.live.com and everything else works fine, but if i want to open home.live.com the following sentences appear:

The Windows Live Network is unavailable from this site for one of the following reasons:

blablabla (i checked every reason of them, there's no problem...)

Using IE8 it works....i hope you didn't build in that it just works with ie8....oO
