Windows Live Essentials 2011 arrived with a strong foothold: what are waiting to download it?

Hotmail users may be the first ones to experience the new features Microsoft is releasing through Windows Live Essentials 2011 suite. In fact, many of them have already found, when accessing their accounts, Hotmail’s “new features”, which are basically related to being able to integrate to Microsoft’s free applications. However, there are other changes that affect all the programs, like Movie Maker, Photo Gallery, Writer, Messenger and Live Mail.

Among the main changes in Wave 4 we can mention the Ribbon bar that was added to all the products. It had already been included in Office’s latest versions, but its inclusion to Windows Live Essentials will be highly appreciated by Writer’s or Movie Maker’s users.

The changes in the menus greatly improve Microsoft’s blogs editor, which becomes one of the most powerful tools of its kind. Also, Movie Maker has a renewed effects gallery, with new possibilities like, for example, including a webcam to home video editing.

As regards Live Mail, Microsoft has made a great effort to simplify the process of sending photos. Now they can be shared through SkyDrive and the e-mail content becomes just a preview of the multimedia content. In this way, the task is much easier and we don’t need to attach the document, which takes up space.

In addition, the new Windows Live Messenger will be able to integrate with other social networks, like LinkedIn or Facebook, directly.

Other new features can be found in Photo Gallery. Windows Live Essentials’s new version provides useful tools like the face recognition tool, which will enable us to tag photos automatically, as well as Photo Fuse, which can fuse similar photos by taking what we like most of each of them.

Windows Live Essentials 2011 is already available for download. Now it’s up to you to test each of Microsoft’s free applications and services. Its new features are more than enough to raise our highest expectations.
