At the top of the new MSN home page there's a strip of shortcuts to Microsoft services like One Drive, Office 365 and Skype - as well as to popular services like Facebook and Twitter. Soon, the company will introduce a variety of MSN apps for Apple and Android devices that carry any preference you set across all of your devices.
So, for example, you will be able to set a watch list of stocks in MSN Money, sports teams in MSN Sports, or recipe collections in MSN Food & Drink.
