Microsoft's Live Mesh
The big buzz right now is for a new Microsoft online initiative called "Live Mesh" that seeks to synchronize most of your computing needs into a single online (MS Windows driven?) environment.
I'm still digesting how this will play in the real world, but clearly Microsoft wants to provide a single framework that will work across many devices and programs, and clearly this is a good idea. What is not clear however is whether Microsoft is the best steward for this type of environment. If, for example, Windows is a requirement for Microsoft Mesh then they have already excluded a large group from the Mesh environment.
Mary Jo Foley at ZDnet has some interesting preview notes about this new Microsoft platform / service which will officially debut soon at the Web 2.0 Expo going on right now in Silicon Valley.
