Microsoft Corp. has begun testing technology that brings together a person's pictures, documents and other data scattered across a growing number of machines with the goal of allowing people to access their information from anywhere and at any time.

Microsoft's "Live Mesh" program, which uses the Internet as a data hub, synchronizes files across computers, phones and other devices so a digital picture frame at home could show a picture minutes after it was taken by a cell phone.

This is taken from MSNBC.COM and the full article is here.

I signed up for the beta two days ago , and was told that it was full but I was put on the waiting list. Today I got my invite and so I downloaded the software. It does not yet support mobile devices or Mac desktops, but notes that this support is coming soon.

I signed up today also.....pending status....

Let us know when you get an invite - it would be interesting to know how long your application takes.

 Current beta members can add new people....like me

jkOnThe Run has an interesting discussion on Live Mesh, MobileMe and ActiveSync.
