Microsoft PIVOT

This is Microsoft Live labs’ another great experiment called “Pivot”. Its nothing but an Internet browser which works on the basis of Internet Explorer 8(only ie 8 and vista or windows7))
but with the new attractive looks and cool features. Pivot makes it easier to interact with massive amounts of data in ways that are powerful, informative, and fun.
A concept just like windows media center which is used to organize media in our PC
This project is in BETA stage and it requires an invitation code to install this product
