    New notification types in What’s new feed

    When the Live Spaces What’s New feed launched last October there were 6 different types of notification prevalent. They were:

  • Photos – album title and thumbnails of up to five recently added photos
  • Files – folder title and icons of up to five recently added files; you can hover to see the file name as a tooltip
  • Blog entry – blog entry title and a text snippet from the
  • Lists – list title and the number of items in the list
  • Profile updates – a list of profile fields that were updated
  • New friend – when a friend (or messenger contact) of yours adds a new friend, you see the new friend’s display name and a link to invite them to be your friend (if they’re not already your friend)

    The new wave 3 version of Windows Live Messenger is a pointer to a whole new raft of notification types coming our way. Here’s some that I’ve picked up on so far:

     

    Something to do with adding web activities. I can’t wait to find out what those are.

    Favo(u)rite movie lists (I’m guessing this is something to do with the iLike web activity above)
