MS Takes Soapbox Public
Microsoft has released the latest beta version of its Soapbox video-sharing site to the general public.
Soapbox was launched in September and trumpeted as a possible ‘YouTube killer’. The service has been available as a closed beta accessible by invitation only. All users can view Soapbox videos, but only those with a Windows Live ID can comment on and upload new videos. Soapbox is part of Microsoft’s Windows Live online application strategy first outlined in 2005.
The online services are designed to compete with web-based heavyweights like Google and Yahoo. Windows Live includes a map service, messenger application and Microsoft’s Hotmail client.
We published HERE some info about Soapbox will be available for mobile viewing as well.
