PCWorld: 5 Great Microsoft Web Services You Probably Don't Use

From PCWorld

Brandon Leblanc linked a great article by PCWorld editor Preston Galla that discusses 5 cool Windows Live services that are free and easy to use:

Which of those Microsoft services are the best? We've tried them all, and we've selected five free hidden gems.
You'll notice that most of these services carry Microsoft's "Live" brand. If you're like most people, you're probably thoroughly confused by the Live lineup, and by what Live actually means--especially since Microsoft has muddied the waters with the newer "Live Essentials" moniker. For the record, Windows Live is a central online location for accessing the Live services and applications. Windows Live Essentials is a subset of the Windows Live brand that houses downloadable applications, including Photo Gallery, Movie Maker, Messenger, and others.
