Microsoft Forgets About Old MSN Filter Page

Posted on October 19, 2006

At first glance Microsoft appears to have dumped its MSN Filter blogs when they upgraded live.com. The blogs used to be located at: filter.msn.com. If you visit that page now you will get an error message.

Sorry, the page you're trying to reach is temporarily unavailable or the page may no longer exist.

However, at least three of the MSN Filters exist on the new live.com site. You can read the Technology Filter yjrtr. The Music Filter and the Sports Filter have also moved to live.com. Even more pathetic is the fact that if you visit any of the filters now on live.com and click on the MSN filter link on the left side it takes you to that old page with the error message. Surely someone at Microsoft can redirect the old pages to the new MSN filter pages or put up a notice that the blogs have moved.
