We all know that Windows Live Wave 5 is under development, yet there is no word on its release date from Microsoft. From the past week, many new features are starting to appear for users around the globe. First is the updated header, which now has links only to Hotmail, Skydrive and Messenger, leaving out Photos. Second in Hotmail, there is a new options page with a feature to turn on preload messages for faster access. I tried it myself and found a noticable increase in speed of message display. Third in Hotmail, there is new option “Mark As” –> “My Friend Has Been Hacked” to notify Microsoft on hacked accounts. Nice updates right?
