Can we at least simply get the page not blocked on Chrome's user agent?
Just serve it up like you would Firefox or Internet Explorer and see how it goes.

Since Chrome is still in Beta, we do not have any plans on supporting at this time. We'll re-evaluate once a non-Beta release is available.

Short answer, no. The decision has been made to continue with only IE and Firefox support for the time being. Google Chrome has been holding steady at about 1% of market share since September, so the low adoption rate does not justify the investment to make My.live.com compatible. We're also not providing Safari support, which has an 8% share.

Heh, knowing Google that probably means there will never be Google Chrome support... :|

Well, at least they are really trying to make the software and services work flawlessly - take notice Microsoft!

I dont understand why there would be an investment in supporting chrome and safari. If my.live.com was developed with valid html, css and javascript code then shouldn't it just work with any browser. Isn't that how websites are supposed to work?
