'''Windows Live Events''' was an online service by [[Microsoft]] as part of its [[Windows Live]] range of services that enabled users in [[Windows Live Spaces]] to share and plan different types of Events happening around them while collaborating with other services such as [[Windows Live Hotmail Calendar]] and [[Windows Live Spaces]]. |
|||
The service allowed users to plan and manage their own Events, add them to their Space, receive [[Windows Live Alerts|Alerts]] and integrate with other Windows Live services such as Calendar. It is similar to [[Facebook features#Events|Facebook Events]].<ref name=liveevents>[http://www.liveside.net/blogs/main/archive/2007/09/14/windows-live-wave-2-launch-in-november-says-microsoft-france.aspx LiveSide.net: Windows Live Wave 2 launch in November says Microsoft France]</ref> |
|||
Windows Live Events disallowed new events to be created starting from September 3, 2009, however still allowed users to access their existing events after this date. The service was fully retired in April 2010 and replaced by [[Windows Live Hotmail Calendar]].<ref>[http://windowslivewire.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!2F7EB29B42641D59!41244.entry Windows Live Events retiring in 2010 - Windows Live]</ref> |
