Windows Live Spaces already dead, WordPress.com will only get 1% of 30M users - Joe Wilcox

Microsoft expects only about 1 percent of Windows Live Spaces bloggers to move to WordPress.com. If not there then where? In the e-mail exchange, one Microsoft executive asserts about the 30 million active Windows Live Spaces blogs: “Most are dead.”

my two cents

Did anyone believe for a second that Microsoft would hand over something that was an active community? Of course it’s dead, and once again it’s proof that old school blogging is dead and stream media, like tumblr, is the future.
