Microsoft Fuse Labs is all set to promote the existence of its very own social network service – Socl via addition of some new and interesting features. The service which is still under the beta stage with over 400,000 registered users has received some major upgrades. It now offers a set of simple, fun “create experiences” that tend to make it easier to express and share ideas with people worldwide.
By adding the new features/ new creation tools, Microsoft aims to keep its social networking service somewhat relevant to help users share video and image content on the service, easily.
