Microsoft has extended open Live Mesh service to Ireland, India and Canada, where people can now join without invitation.

CNET reports that Microsoft has expanded its open invitation to join its Live Mesh service to people in Ireland, India and Canada, joining those in the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand who already have access to Live Mesh without an invitation.
However, there’s still a cap of the numbers allowed from India, Canada and Ireland.

So what does Live Mesh do? At the moment it stands as a way to synchronize data among a number of computers, but the eventual aim is to move desktop apps to cloud computing and vice versa, as well as synchronizing among multiple devices.

So far, though, Macs would appear to be off the list. But on several occasions a tantalizing link has appeared on the site for an early version of a Mac client, although this has always been promptly removed by Microsoft.

It’s expected that Microsoft will broaden its Live Mesh testing and add new features before its holds the Professional Developers Conference in October.
