Live Spaces Upgrade Adds Friends in Common, Photo Albums Module
Windows Live Spaces has been updated, and while the official Spaces blog has absolutely no information, users are slowly figuring out what is in the update. Here’s what I’ve heard:
- Spaces added a “In Common” feature, showing which friends you have in common with other people. This is a fun and extremely useful feature in Facebook, and a great addition to Spaces.
- It appears (and by appears, I mean I’m not sure, since the only source is translated from Italian) that you can now put a photo album module on your Space, with up to six albums. You can control the speed of the slideshow transitions in the album, choose which albums to display.
- A new module to display Windows Live Events.
- There’s a new API for accessing Spaces photos. An application or service using it can upload and download photos, create, edit or delete albums, request a list of albums, photos or comments, and other things.
