Windows Live Search Gets Updated

Windows Live Search received a major update over the weekend and it looks like we're up for a few new features. Details are as follows:

Map your friends: Grabs addresses from your contact list, puts them on the map, and provides directions.
View Virtual Earth collections: Lets you check out maps of locations/events shared by members of the community.
Web search: Launch web search directly from the client to find web pages, product price comparisons and reviews, news, images, etc.
Weather: Check the current weather, or a 4 day forecast.

The first two features suggest that regardless of what platform you're using, maps are always a hit. You can point your mobile browser to http://wls.live.com if you want to try it out.
