    FolderShare gets a facelift

    It's been almost 2 1/2 years since FolderShare was acquired by Microsoft.  When we (the FolderShare team) joined Microsoft, we didn't have any idea of how interesting (and challenging) the journey would be.  You only need to look back at all the changes (here, here, & here) that have taken place in the MSN - Windows Live group at MS during that time to get an idea of what we encountered.

    I'm really excited about this release.  FolderShare was in bad need of a new paint job.  The UX now looks polished and like it belongs with the other Windows Live services.  We've even worked on the usability to (hopefully) make it easier to create libraries and get started with the service.  I'm glad to see we're continuing to support the Mac client.  Unfortunately we weren't able to release a new OS X client today with the updated website and Windows client, but I would expect to see a new and improved Mac client later this year.

    While Tom & Michael (two of my colleagues at FolderShare) no longer work at the company, I know they're as excited as I am about having Microsoft -finally- ship this updated version.  Congrats to the FolderShare team on an awesome release!  Can't wait to see what in store for the service over the next year.
