Windows 8, the name is very well known. It gives us a new level of integration with the online accounts by allowing users to login with a Microsoft account rather than a local user account. Although users have the option to use a LOCAL account or a MICROSOFT ACCOUNT.

Microsoft Account- a great feature but… Is there something you feel annoying regarding your personal data (online accounts like Facebook, Twitter, Apps and Games) when you are using a Microsoft Account ? ? ?

Good day :)
