MSN Launches Spaces
In a move that should surprise nobody, MSN is leaping head-first into the world of blogging. It's called MSN Spaces (through this link, I've listed a handful of the team members' Spaces). Admittedly, they have the most to offer new bloggers - including great integration with other MSN services (that someone may or may not already be using). I'd say this is a pretty good v1.0. Channel 9 already has a video up - learn what it's all about without reading a word. Or blogging about it, as I'm sure many of you will do now. Dunno. Would any of you consider switching after reading the laundry list of features? I'm sure it'll woo many non-bloggers - and classic Hotmail users. Everybody loves blog.

I signed up last night and blogged my first feelings on this. I agree with some of Scoble's criticisms but I am surprised to hear that he won't have at least a token MSN Spaces blog space. Maybe he will and I just misunderstood his comments on his blog. I signed up for AOL Journal when that first came out too, but I haven't done a whole lot of blogging with that.

Beta ****! Why would I use this service at this point? I'm not really interested in doing the job that the peeps at MSN should be doing…finding their bugs and dealing with the headache. Tried it out and its more like an alpha than a beta.

This will do for blogging what Front Page did for web design ;)
