Is it true that MSN Groups are changing to Live Groups?

I'm guessing it may well be since everything will be the Vista "Live" platform/scheme.

We had hotmail and msn, now its Windows Live Mail.

We had MSN Messenger, now its Messenger Live

wouldnt be surprised if the MSN groups were changed to Live Groups

I'm pretty sure that's only the chat servers, I think the groups themselves will still be there just that the chatrooms for them won't be.

I made a sugestion to microsft about msn groups moviong to windows live spaces. there, the group blog would be right there. But I fell it should be renamed to Windows Live Clubs or something like that.

but microsoft saying "you can contract directly to your contacts by downloading WLM"

Yeah, my group has well over 500 members, i'm expected to add them all.....

rebulid groups from scratch and intergrate in to spaces. make spaces larger by adding groups and it will be all on the same network and same log in info and everything.

yes i would like to see a fresh look at groups and have it re modeled would be nice, shame they shuit down group chats they where a a core feature in some groups.

prehaps some more controls for example "edit posts" instead of having to just "Delete them".

but now they have Spaces maybe they just CBA doing anything to Groups?
