ANNOUNCING WINDOWS LIVE MESSENGER WEB TOOLKIT V3.5: BETTER UI, FASTER DEVELOPMENT, RICHER EXPERIENCE FOR NON-MESSENGER USERS

No Comments »

We’ve been operative tough upon a Windows Live Messenger Web Toolkit (MWT) which allows we to bond your web site to 330M+ people who have have have have have have make make make use of of of of of of of of of Windows Live Messenger each month! Today we’d similar to to have known a accessibility of a Messenger Web Toolkit v3.5 which will enhance a user experience, make it simpler to capacitate pity around Messenger scenarios upon your site (new pity control), as well as enable brand brand brand brand brand brand new scenarios (e.g. people who don’t have have have have have have make make make use of of of of of of of of of Messenger will be means to see arrangement pics / names). Specifically, a improvements we have finished are:

  • User experience: smoothed out a user experience, combined a initial run experience, stretched a browser support, increasing a opening
  • Developer experience: marked down a volume of formula for we to exercise “Share around Windows Live” as well as a Messenger Web Toolkit is right away built upon a Microsoft Ajax library.
  • New scenarios: Allow people who don’t have have have have have have make make make use of of of of of of of of of Messenger to see display cinema and names of Messenger users.

How did we figure out what have been a many critical things to get in this release? We listened to as well as incorporated a good feedback from a partners (some award winning), and were means to come up with brand brand brand brand brand brand new as well as sparkling scenarios.

User Experience: Sexier, faster, upheld in some-more browsers

To move some-more people to your site as well as get them to outlay some-more time there, a user knowledge needs to be superb. We have finished a Messenger Web Toolkit user knowledge improved in many ways:

  • Speed: In Mar 2009 we lengthened Windows Live Hotmail to have have have have have have make make make use of of of of of of of of of a Messenger Web Toolkit (see a post). By carrying a pieces regulating during Hotmail scale we were means to accumulate a ton of report around opening as well as we’ve acted upon it: a MWT will right away load faster (full/first time loads as well as cranky page navigation).
  • Availability/Reach: combined browser await for Firefox 3.5, Safari 4, as well as Google Chrome 2 - right away some-more people can bond & share with their Windows Live friends upon your site.
  • Education: One of a many discernible UX changes we’ve finished is a initial run knowledge for a Web Bar (a singular carry out we can have have have have have have make make make use of of of of of of of of of if we don’t wish to set up your own experience). When we initial have have have have have have make make make use of of of of of of of of of a Web Bar upon a site, a tiny popup will surprise a user they can pointer in as well as discuss it them a pass things they need to know to begin joining as well as pity with their friends.

  • Looks: we have additionally updated a web controls as well as web club user knowledge to cleanser

Developers: Easier to supplement pity controls as well as aligned with some-more tech

We’ve finished dual things for developers 1) combined a brand brand brand brand brand brand new carry out for pity which reduces a volume of formula compulsory as well as 2) altered a underlying JavaScript libraries to a Microsoft Ajax libraries.

Sharing control: in reserve from in-page chat, a subsequent many usual unfolding we see is sharing around present messaging. Sharing calm is critical as well as it is mostly a vital motorist of user merger (or user retention). To assimilate a differences in between pity around a open feed, newsfeed as well as present messaging review my post upon user acquisition.

The crux is: a user’s friends have been some-more expected to click by to see a content/service being common with them if it is finished around present messaging as well as in a conversational way.

To have pity around Windows Live Messenger most simpler we have combined a brand brand brand brand brand brand new control, msgr:share. The pity carry out reduces a volume of formula compulsory to a following:

// embody a JavaScript libraries
<msgr:appinsert the code for app tag here/>
<msgr:bar></msgr:bar>

<msgr:share
  message="I am pity a Messenger Web Toolkit http://dev.live.com/messenger with you"
  picker-label="Select Contacts">
</msgr:share>

The carry out contains a user knowledge which will pointer a user in (via a agree flow), uncover a strike selector control, as well as send an IM with a predefined content.

Aside from manifest facilities such as a pity control, we have additionally finished a little infrastructure work. The Windows Live Messenger Web Toolkit is right away built with a Microsoft AJAX Library. With this integration, a Messenger Web Toolkit focus functions with a customary browser runtime living room for Microsoft web growth tools. Prior to chronicle 3.5, a Web Toolkit worked with a Script# runtime living room declared ’sscorlib’. See Microsoft Ajax to establish either we need to have any changes with your application.

Something for people who don’t have have have have have have make make make use of of of of of of of of of or aren’t sealed in to Messenger

People regulating Windows Live Messenger in all discuss with people they have ‘friended’ in Messenger. However, infrequently people who have have have have have have make make make use of of of of of of of of of Messenger upon a web site might wish to discuss with alternative people they know from which web site (who have been not their friends upon Messenger). We call this underline Application Contacts. The cold thing about this is when we pointer in to a web site (and accede to accede to pointer in to Windows Live Messenger) which uses Application Contacts, alternative site visitors can discuss with me whilst I’m upon a site, or anytime when we have Windows Live Messenger customer open (all a time, similar to hundreds of millions of alternative people).

We have finished a lot of enhancements to Application Contacts (more information), though a vital shift is which we don’t need to be sealed in to a Messenger Web Toolkit for all scenarios. People who have been not Windows Live Messenger users (or have been not sealed in to Messenger upon a web site) can still see a form design as well as arrangement name of user’s a web site chooses to display. This is quite engaging for commenting as well as user form scenarios. To have have have have have have make make make use of of of of of of of of of this functionality a brand brand brand brand brand brand new Messenger Application Key contingency be used. This is equivalent to a use account. Our documentation upon Application Contacts outlines how to get a key.

Previously, if we longed for to uncover a arrangement pictures/names to a user who wasn’t sealed in to Messenger a pics/display name weren’t available. Using a updated Application Contacts functionality we can right away uncover arrangement names as well as cinema to people who aren’t Windows Live Messenger users (or people who haven’t sealed in yet). See a prior to & after:

ENGINEERING THE WINDOWS LIVE / MYSPACE INTEGRATION AND LEVERAGING ACTIVITY STREAMS

No Comments »

My name is Rob Dolin, we work as an operative upon a Windows Live Social group as well as I’m respected to have a eventuality to guest blog here during http://dev.live.com/ about a singular of a ultimate (and IMHO many exciting) features, a formation with a singular of a world’s largest amicable networks, MySpace.

We usually voiced upon a Windows Live Team blog, starting a week of September 14th, you can supplement a MySpace “Web Activity” to Windows Live so which we can move your activities upon MySpace similar to posting photos, updating status, pity music, or blogging in to Windows Live. Heck, if we have a MySpace comment (and hundreds of millions of people already do) we can try it right now:

http://profile.live.com/WebActivities/add.aspx?AppID=1140860417

(link will open in a brand brand brand brand brand brand new window)

About Web Activities

With today’s ultimate partner integrations upon Windows Live, we’ll have over fifty web activities which Windows Live business can supplement in to their Windows Live experience. (To sense some-more about all a Windows Live partners, check out a Windows Live Team blog). Nearly all of a web activities occupy a polling indication where a patron enters a little simple report about their participation upon a website as well as afterwards Windows Live intermittently polls an XML feed of a customer’s wake up upon which site. In a past, this feed has been in RSS 2.0 or Atom as well as afterwards for any partner, we have a law XSLT which maps a elements from a customer’s feed to a interpretation attributes in Windows Live’s system. For example, yesterday, we was out to cooking with my partner as well as we posted a next tweet:

(from: http://twitter.com/robdolin)

clip_image002

Since we have already set up a Windows Live web wake up for Twitter, my chatter feed, Windows Live can go as well as review my chatter feed (http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/4044361.rss):

<item> 
     <title>robdolin: @ Capital Grille ! New tumble prix fixe menu was good value; H pronounced she would steal a lorry for a truffle mac &amp; cheese #seattle #food</title>

     <description>robdolin: @ Capital Grille ! New tumble prix fixe menu was good value; H pronounced she would steal a lorry for a truffle mac &amp; cheese #seattle #food</description>

     <link>http://twitter.com/robdolin/statuses/3879866454</link>

</item>

And afterwards tell a refurbish upon my interest to my Windows Live profile:

(from: http://cid-3c8ca60f8f925fec.profile.live.com/)

clip_image004

My friends who make make use of of Windows Live afterwards see my refurbish from a Twitter web wake up in a following places:

· When they make make use of of Windows Live Messenger

· When a login to http://home.live.com/

· When they send me email from Hotmail

· When they revisit my Windows Live Profile

Challenges with Web Activities

There have been dual large hurdles with this simple polling indication of RSS 2.0 or Atom:

1. We need to rise a law mapping for any partner

2. Each partner needs to have usually a singular wake up sort or they need a approach to promulgate what sort of wake up any RSS 2.0 <item> or Atom <entry> is.

The rising Activity Streams open customary comes in to assistance compromise both of these problems.

How Activity Streams Helps

Activity Streams helps to residence both of a upon top of issues. First, instead of carrying to do a law mapping for most each Web Activities partner, with an open customary similar to Activity Streams, we can build a singular mapping which can be used by mixed partners.

Second, Activity Streams includes <activity:verb> as well as <activity:object-type> elements so we can brand which a singular <entry> is a standing refurbish as well as an additional is a blog entry. Thus, services which have mixed wake up sorts (like MySpace) can have a singular feed which includes photos, status, blogs, music, as well as more.

MySpace Example

Let me uncover we an e.g. with MySpace.

On MySpace, I’ve left as well as uploaded a little photos as well as created a blog entry. You can see these upon my MySpace profile:

(from: http://www.myspace.com/tesstingms)

clip_image006

If we sanction it, MySpace will share an XML feed of my activities which uses a Activity Streams elements:

IMPROVED WAYS TO REMEMBER BIRTHDAYS

No Comments »

When Windows Live Calendar came out of beta in January, we introduced a birthday monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly calendar to automatically keep lane of your contacts’ birthdays. We’ve only softened a birthday monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly calendar to have it even some-more flexible.

Whenever we supplement birthday report in your hit list, it appears in your calendar. But right away we can additionally supplement birthdays right from inside a birthday monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly calendar (and they’ll automatically sync with your hit list).

clip_image002

When we supplement a brand new birthday, we can call courtesy to it with a special appeal as well as we can set a second sign (so we really don’t dont think about to buy which gift).

clip_image004

If we don’t similar to a birthday calendar, we can spin it off or undo a total thing. Deleting a birthday monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly calendar doesn’t shift what’s in your hit list, so we can regularly supplement a birthday monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly calendar behind later.

There have been a couple of alternative additions to a settings page: we can additionally shift a default appeal which goes with birthdays. And we can modernise a monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly monthly calendar to have certain it has all a ultimate birthdays which have been in your hit list.

We goal these improvements assistance we keep lane of birthdays.

Happy scheduling,
