Microsoft's announcement on April 9 that it will integrate Windows Live Messenger into the Xbox 360 got me thinking about what other Windows Live services might be a natural complement to Microsoft's gaming console/service. Might the Softies integrate Windows Live Product Search with Xbox Live? Windows Live Alerts? Microsoft isn't talking,Microsoft Office 2010 Home And Business (http://www.msoffice2010key.com/), but Directions on Microsoft analyst Matt Rosoff had an interesting take on what might — and might not be — next. "There's been some integration between Messenger and Xbox Live for several years now,Windows 7 Home Basic (http://www.windows7key.ca/)," Rosoff said. Once Microsoft delivers its May update, "you'be been able to access Messenger buddylists and send one-way text messages (e.g., game invitations). And two-way voice chat is an integral feature of Xbox Live. This simply adds two-way text chat between PC and Xbox." Are there more Live integrations in Xbox's future? "Microsoft positions the Xbox primarily a game console, secondarily as a home entertainment device. (The Xbox) is not intended to be an all-in-one Internet access device,Office 2007 Standard (http://www.key-office-2007.de), or a replacement for the PC. So I don't think they'll add connectivity to too many Windows Live services,microsoft Office 2010 keygen (http://www.office2010key.us/)," Rosoff said. "For instance, I don't think they'd get enough extra eyeballs to Live Search to make the integration worthwhile. More likely would be connectivity to MSN's content services — for example,Office Professional 2010 (http://www.msoffice2010key.com/), making it easy to watch MSN Video on the console." Any Windows Live services you'd like to see mashed up with Xbox Live?
