LiveSide.net Promote Your Page Too
If you’ve recently visited Bing by typing http://www.live.com into the address bar, you would’ve noticed the following notice across the top of the page:
When Bing first launched, this Q&A post over at the Bing & adCenter Community told us the following:
Q: What will happen to Live.com? A: The Live.com URL will redirect to Bing.com for 45 days after launch. After this period it becomes the front door for all Live services including Office Live and Windows Live.
It’s now way past 45 days since Bing first launched in June, and this is the first sign indicating that Live.com will no longer redirect to Bing. After all, Microsoft should make good use of the easy-to-remember domain name for their “Live” offerings (did we mention Start.com too?). The question is, what will take the place for Live.com? Possible candidates are:
Which one do you think will take the place of Live.com? And most important of all, what would you want to be placed there?
Your personalized page has moved from Live.com, which is now Live Search Home page, to http://my.live.com
You can still reach your personalized page from live.com, just click Personalized page at bottom right.

In an email sent out to Windows Live users, Microsoft today announced that from mid-April, personalised Live.com pages will be available from http://my.live.com. Just last week, the title of the page switched to "Windows Live Personalized Experience", suggesting that it may very well be seeing some updates soon.
Of course what with home.live.com, my.live.com and live.com, its now slightly easier for end-users to know exactly what page they should be using for different purposes. Full email is after the jump.
