All indications are that "Windows Live" won't be part of the Windows 8 lexicon. Microsoft seems to be re-(re-re-re)-branding the ragtag collection of applications formerly known as Windows Live-something, gussying up some of them, assigning them shorter monikers, and casting them center stage for the Metro part of Windows 8.
For those of you who depend on one or more of the current Windows Live lineup, you may find yourself stuck with orphaned apps - which, given the status of the "legacy" Windows 7 desktop in Windows 8, shouldn't come as a huge surprise.

They killed MSN search, they killed Windows Live search, they killed Live search, so why not kill Bing search?
