Would the real nicholas.king@hotmail.com please stand up
So it seems that every three years or so I go through some form of online identity metamorphosis. So far I can count my gmail conversion once I joined Microsoft, and more recently the transition to my Small Business Server 2008 identity.
This lead me to consider how to merge these identities into one 'key-chain'. After a bit of research I found out that Windows Live IDs do in fact enable this function.
Navigate to http://account.live.com - Sign in with your legacy Windows Live ID
Next navigate to settings on the right hand pane- Select Linked IDs
- Click link an existing Windows Live ID
Complete the link ID form
There you have it a linked ID!!
So what does this mean? Well now that I've signed in with one, all of the services I use are now combined into either identity. This really simplifies things and means I won't need to send everyone another email saying I've changed again.
