Get Ready for Windows Live Unified Installer!

Sounds like what physicists are searching for, the grand unified theory (GUT), but Windows plans to launch this week "free software that connects its Windows operating system to software services delivered on the Internet, a practice increasingly referred to as “cloud” computing. The initiative is part of an effort to connect Windows more seamlessly to a growing array of Internet services," according to the NYT.

Bringing you closer to its Windows Live online offerings, like Search, SkyDrive, Mail, Photo Gallery, Messenger, OneCare and Messenger, this software promises to make connecting with its services easier than ever before. A good idea? Sounds like it to me. Keep your eyes peeled.
