Steve Gillmor thinks out loud about Live Mesh

My long time friend and co-conspirator in the software business for almost 20 years, Steve Gillmor, comments about Live Mesh and it's implications.

I think he got it partially right and, of course, based on his limited publically available information, partially wrong.

The future will be, as always, interesting.

Today at Web 2.0 Expo, Ori Amiga presented the first public view of the Live Mesh developer experience.

Writing code in Iron Python as well as C#, Ori demonstrated, as in his Channel9 video, how easy it is to write apps against the Mesh Operating Environment (MOE).

Live Mesh rocks! - Technical Preview Opens Tomorrow

Last night @ 9PM Microsoft announced the existence of and first technical preview of Live Mesh!

Both Scoble (Ray Ozzie Delivers with Live Mesh) and Mary Jo Foley (Ten Things to know about Microsoft's Live Mesh) are excited and, in my opinion, justifyably so.

The first preview of the combination platform/service opens tomorrow and the developer story/kits will come later which will enable a whole raft of interesting application scenarios.

There a a bunch of videos on Channel9 as well as an interesting walkthrough of the technology from a developer's point of view narrated by Jeremy Mazner you can watch now.

The official announcement also included this list of links:
