    Hi folks,
        is it possible to share a folder with a list of people via their LiveID's? Is it also possible to share a sync'd folder to everyone ?

        When i say share, i mean read-only available.

        Or do i need to use SkyDrive for this (which means i need to manually update it all the time)?

        Cheers!

    Hi,

    You can share a Live Mesh folder with anyone who has a Live ID and is using Live Mesh.  You can use the Members area of the mesh bar to send invites to individual email addresses, but I'm not quite sure what you mean by being able to share the folder with everyone - we've had some requests for a way to make folders "public", but that's not currently a feature.  Is that what you had in mind, or have I misunderstood?

    I hope that helps.

    Ben.
