Microsoft has released a Windows Live Suite which bundles a series of desktop applications that provide access to the firm's online services.
The suite includes Windows Live Writer, an editor tool to compose postings for a series of blog services, as well as a desktop client for mail and messaging services.
Windows Live Photo Gallery lets users organise, edit and share digital photos. The application is similar to Picasa, a tool that Google acquired in 2004.
Windows Live Events takes on Evite.com with event planning and invitation features. The bundle also includes a parental control tool that prevents children accessing inappropriate content.
