Windows Phone 7 has live tiles that are oversized, super flat squares which are updated constantly with fresh content, like news, weather, mail, photos, status updates. They’re refreshed automatically and wirelessly via the web, without you having to do a thing.

The Tiles are bright and completely unique and they can be completely customised.

Picture hubs, Gaming hubs, Music and Video hubs, and the all important People hubs. The hubs are like super sized applications with extremely large screens that pull in your favourite information and content.

The People Hub is where all your social networking happens, pulling in a live stream of information from Facebook and Windows Live. The Live Tiles work with the People Hub so that you can Tile your favourite friends, this will update in real time what they’re posting, suck in their photo updates from anywhere, and basically keep you in real time with them.
