I tend to talk about MSN Spaces a lot which makes people think I work on that team when in truth I work with them as well as with the MSN Messenger and Hotmail folks. Although its easy to find folks who work on Spaces by simply starting from Mike Torres's blog, it isn't so straightforward for Hotmail or Messenger. Below is a short list of a few of MSN communications services folks blogs I am aware of

HOTMAIL BLOGS

MSN MESSENGER BLOGS

There are a bunch of other blogs by the folks on the various client and server teams but these four are the ones that talk most about the products they work on. In fact, if you browse the various blog rolls on their spaces and mine you'll notice that most of the MSN folks use their spaces for personal stuff not work blogging.

Great to know that you also work with the Hotmail team. I have been eager to hear any updates from the Hotmail dev. team. So what's the next great feature that Hotmail is coming up with?
Amidst the tough challenges from Yahoo! mail and GMail, Hotmail needs to keep up with the competition by introducing some new services/feature sets soon.
Just a positive bit of criticism - why is that Hotmail is the last email service to announce upgrades? When GMail flamed the war of email storage, Hotmail was the last one to announce upgrades of the email accounts, and still 1 year after the announcement many Hotmail accounts (including mine :( ) is still waiting in the queue of upgardes (2MB is toooooo less!). Though I quite understand that 187 million user base is quite a big one to handle but is it the only reason for such a delay??
