Has anyone?

Has anyone ever used Microsoft Office Live Basics, i dont get what the catch is, there must be one, a free domain name and a free web host, it looks too good to be true.

Tell me what you think please

Has anyone?

You%26#039;re locked in, somewhat, to MS software; you have to put up with the %26quot;possibilities%26quot; that either (1) they may stop it someday or (2) they may decide to charge for hosting someday - they say the domain name is yours to keep, but if they decide to relinquish registration services, then you%26#039;d have to pay someone else to be %26quot;registrar. (cheap, $7 per year plus or minus) and (3) it%26#039;s somewhat constrained in customization - you can%26#039;t make the web page(s) look as much like your own as you could if you wrote %26quot;raw code%26quot; and placed it on an %26quot;owned%26quot; website.

Its good, works well, no immediate catches;

Whilst it is not as good as the pay for stuff, it is a kind of teaser, but it is what it says it is, no hidden catch, in fact they are pretty upfront about the whole thing

Other Replys:If it has anything to do with Microsoft it is either overpriced, low quality, or a combination of both. If you think Microsoft is going to give you anything, then I have some ocean front property in Kansas to sell you.

Other Replys:%26quot; as at the conclusion of the Office Live Collaboration Beta, when beta customers will be asked if they would like to continue using our services on a paid, monthly subscription basis%26quot;

after rading this, looks like it%26#039;s in their beta.. perhaps not really beta... they are just looking for a way to attract new customers.. one their beta testing has finished they will ask you if you want to become a paid customer..
