    Live Groups to debut in November?

    I have just stumbled upon the following page in wikipedia for Windows Live Groups: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Live_Groups

    It contains the following very informative screen shot:

    250px-Windows_Live_Groups

    I am deducing from that screen shot that Live Groups is going to be built upon the Live Spaces infrastructure just like Live Events is and just like I predicted 12 days ago.

     

    I haven't seen this screen shot anywhere else so I'm guessing this is Microsoft attempting to quietly whet our appetites especially as at the bottom of the page it is stated "This Microsoft article is a stub. ". What is most interesting is the quote "Windows Live Groups is expected to be released in November 2007"

    Make of that what you will.

    not only floating on top of the search results, but breaking their own rules (crystal balling using their terms).
     
    it seems they have archieved a position to represent everything and everyone, sometimes on top of the people who own or maintain the subjects for real!
     
    each tiny edit will cause the page to be re-submitted, the internet has not reacted to this behaviour but maybe soon will. is this SEO (search engine optimization)?
     
    yet it's about a non existing service.

    That would be nice if one has the option to select which members of the group to add to contacts.
