New Feed And Contact Partners Coming To Windows Live

This week 23 new third-party feed partners, including Blingee, BuddyTV, Goodreads, Hulu, Judy’s Book, MySpace, Newsvine, OleOle, Qik and SlideShare are rolling out in Windows Live (full list available here).

Adding feeds to your Windows Live Profile is easy. Click “Add Web activities” on the left side of your Windows Live Profile page, and select the partner sites you’d like to add. After following the steps, your activities on those sites will appear in the news feed of your Windows Live profile and throughout Windows Live.

But not only are more feed partners coming to Windows Live, there will also be new contact partners. Contact partners? Yes, contact partners. Contact partners are sites with which you can share/invite contacts back and forth. Just as you can already invite friends (contacts) from Facebook, hi5, LinkedIn and MySpace to Windows Live, you will now also be able to invite friends from AOL, Google and Hyves!

To invite people go to your Windows Live homepage at http://www.home.live.com and click “Add people”

Next select from which network you’d like to invite friends, click the arrow and follow steps. Done!

This is a lot of structural social networking support Microsoft is taking the time to build into Windows Live. Makes me wonder if they have further plans than just displaying "updates" from different sources.
