Once again, all hype and promises with few details. LiveMesh looks
great on Powerpoint, but will it be much of anything in practice. If
Ina Fried has to make sense of it, how will the average consumer?
LiveMesh joins the rest of Microsoft's LiveMush, a bunch of Live[insert other useless name] stuff that's supposed to do a bunch
of stuff that is not readily apparent and requires a tech journalist or
IT admin to unpack.

OH, great... here we go again. MSFT will be traipsing around slapping the word "mesh" onto anything that moves in their campus... just like they did in 1999-2001 with "dot-net".

Well - it's their money to waste.
