Microsoft Start – Computerworld – IT news, IT business, IT work, conferences

The company today changed the names of its popular MSN and Microsoft News services to Microsoft Start. On the technical side, nothing changes. Microsoft Start, like MSN News and Microsoft News, is a personalized news channel that offers users different types of content, such as weather forecasts, news from the world of sports or stock prices.

This change is probably not accidental, as the company already uses the word “Start” to refer to elements of the Windows interface such as the Start button or the Start menu. There are several ways to access the Microsoft Start channel. First of all, it is a standalone website offered by Microsoft Edge and Chrome browsers. The new name will be easy to remember.

The service also comes as a standalone app that works on Android and iOS devices. This feature can also be placed on Windows 10 taskbars or configured in Windows 11 as a widget. In Edge browser, you can also open it as a new tab.

And here is an interesting fact. It is not clear why, but the company is not definitively saying goodbye to the MSN name and has announced that it will continue to use it. For example, by the Web Experiences Team (WebXT) development team, which is responsible for the development of products and services such as Bing, Edge or MSN.
