You might have already downloaded Windows Live Wave 3 Betas yesterday itself.  What…No..??? OK, then Download it now.
Why??  Because the new wave beta have got some really cool features.

Highlights:

  • Now Live messenger and Mail share the same list.  No more duplicate contacts.  Read complete review about new Windows Live Messenger on Messenger Blog.
  • Now finally you can login from multiple computers at the same time.
  • Live messenger gets a brand new interface with scenes and other GUI improvements.
  • File & photo sharing got even easier.  Just drag and drop.  Read about it more on Live Messenger Space.
  • Easy sync with Windows Live Calendar, works in offline mode too.
  • Set up and share multiple shared calendars.  Even with so many improved features, Calendar functionality still lacks lot of feature Yahoo calendar provides.  Live Calendar has a long way to go.  Lets hope for the best in Final release.
  • Photo Gallery beta recognizes and tags faces.
  • Undoubtedly one of the best blogging tool – Windows Live Write Beta, now adds the ability to use, import and upload videos directly to your favorite site like Youtube and embed the video to your blog post.  Read more about it on Write Space.
  • Movie maker beta gets a redesign but lacks lot of features mainly it can’t even trim the clips and show you a storyline etc.
  • I don’t use other products so I better not review those as well here.

Check out the quick screen cast below:

Hope you like the details.  I am seriously looking forward to get the new Live Hotmail they are planning to publish soon.  These new products made me stick to Windows a little longer, else I am using Ubuntu Linux all the time.  Below is a small video capture of the Messenger Beta as well.
