Microsoft previews Listas, a little demo

This just in: Microsoft announces an online listmaking tool called Listas. Mashable tells us: “This is a list-sharing tool that lets you edit lists, share them with others, and search for public lists that have been created by users. Microsoft is proposing its use for just about any reason you’d make a list, including meeting notes, shopping lists, or casual event planning.”
I decided to just jump in and create a first list and directly record it with Jing.
I would love to share it here but unfortunately the embedded code from Screencast.com doesn’t resize very well. So you can view the screencast here, as long as the bandwidth allows me to present it
As you can see, it is still a technology preview. Not everything functions as it should. Some listitems disappear and it seems tagging is limited to just 15 characters. But it has potential. Every list comes with an RSS feed, you can import other lists and when using Internet Explorer, you can download the Listas Toolbar. I didn’t have the guts to try the toolbar…
