WINDOWS LIVE SKY DRIVE GALLERY WEB MAIL MOODLE OFFICE LIVE Windows Live offers a suite of Applications with an impressive amount of storage.
Office Live workspace supports Office Tools and provides around 5 gigs of personal space. You can add files, create, edit and store documents. Power Point, Publisher, Access and Excel can all be used and stored on Office Live. There is really no more need for flash drives or saving to the “S” drive.
Windows Sky Drive allows approximately 25 gigs of storage. Users can create files and folders for storage (like on Office Live) but they can also create a Space. A Space is not a social Network, (like My Space or Face Book) but you can create a unique space, invite friends, and control who has access to different files you have stored. Classroom teachers use the Sky Drive to post assignments for students, post reading lists and the like.
