Windows Live Events is an online service by Microsoft as part of its Windows Live range of services that enable users in Windows Live Spaces to share and plan different types of Events happening around them while collaborating with other services such as Windows Live Calendar and Windows Live Spaces.
The service will allow users to plan and manage their own Events, add them to their Space, receive Alerts and integrate with other Windows Live services such as Calendar. It is similar to Facebook Events.[1]
