Paul Thurrott: I recently spoke with Windows Live Senior Director of Product Management Ryan Gavin to discuss Windows Live Wave 3. Ryan runs consumer product marketing for Windows Live and reports to Brian Hall, who reports in turn to Bill Veghte, the Microsoft senior vice president in charge of the company's Windows business and online services.

Windows Live Wave 3, in case you're not familiar, is a "product wave" that will eventually encompass all of the platforms for which Microsoft makes Windows Live products and services. This includes the PC, the Web, and mobile devices. At this early stage in Wave 3, however, all I can discuss is the PC side of things, which involves a new version of the Windows Live suite that first shipped late last year (see my review). Information about updated versions of the Windows Live online services and mobile offerings are forthcoming.
