Hey folks, Dave Treadwell here. For those who don’t know me, I run the Live Platform Services team here at Microsoft. Before coming over to the services world, I spent many years working on .NET, and I feel really fortunate to be working on a part of what I feel will be the next great round of developer platform infrastructure for the industry: platforms to make it easy to create awesome services-based applications.

I wanted to guest post today to let everyone know we’ve got some cool new applications and APIs we’re unveiling at MIX08. The Windows Live platform team has been working hard to expand our services for developers, so they can create rich new experiences for users. I’ll be covering:

• New services & existing services progress
• Standardization of frameworks & protocols
• New pre-release services/tools for experimentation and feedback
• Windows Live Quick Applications (demo web sites) updates
