MSN Spaces Is Live

It looks like Microsoft has released MSN Spaces, it's answer to Google's blogger. I signed up, just to see what it's all about. It does have a few cool features. It's full content RSS feeds are nice, as is the photo album, but the coolest feature is blogging by email.

My first post was via email, so it works! Now I'll have to either find or create a plug-in for my blogging tool that can send items by email, and be configurable for what email address it comes from and what email address it goes to. Then I could also post to my Spaces blog at the same time as I post to all of my blogs.

For those interested, my Spaces blog is located at http://spaces.msn.com/members/rosscode/. I'll probably try out a few of it's features over the next few days and see how it works.
