Hi Jamie,
Have you tried running your cloud LOE benchmark since the cloud update toward the end of last week? The local LOE will still win by a landslide, but I think the cloud numbers will be much better now.

No I haven't. I'll get round to it at some point altho I'm not sure how relevant it is given that the test is so crude (and running on a VM). Still, I suppose it'll be a good before and after comparison.

- This isn't exactly a Live Framework blog post, but I thought it was still relevant.
Microsoft moves Live Mesh under Windows chief Sinofsky
David Treadwell now reports to Steven Sinofsky rather than to Ray Ozzie. Now there's speculation that Live Mesh may be made part of Windows, or at least part of the Live Essentials suite.

Dave Thompson here from blogs.msdn.com/davethompson please let me know what you think and if there's anything you would like covered in these blog posts...

HttpWebRequest, its request stream, and sending data in chunks
Hmm... wonder why he's not just using LiveOperatingEnvironment.Mesh.MeshObjects.Add()? ;-)
This is very cool to see someone like Jeffrey taking Live Framework seriously. Makes me wonder which Microsoft product is getting a high-performance Mesh makeover... :-)

Exploring Live Framework Activities
Activities are an undocumented feature that is used to implement things like the Meshbar's user presence indicators. You can also use Activities in your own apps for things like chat or remote control.Edit: whoops! Neil beat me to it! :-)
