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

You're locked in, somewhat, to MS software; you have to put up with the "possibilities" 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'd have to pay someone else to be "registrar. (cheap, $7 per year plus or minus) and (3) it's somewhat constrained in customization - you can't make the web page(s) look as much like your own as you could if you wrote "raw code" and placed it on an "owned" 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
Reply: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.

after rading this, looks like it'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..
