Microsoft is abandoing it's free classifieds "Windows Live Expo"

Microsoft is retiring it's free classifieds known as Windows Live Expo. Following notice is now being displayed on the Windows Live Expo site:
Windows Live Expo will discontinue service on 31 July 2008. In preparation, the following features are no longer available:
  • Create a new account.
  • Post a new listing.
  • Extend a listing.
  • Upgrade a listing to a premium listing.
All current listings will remain on expo.live.com until they expire.

We thank you for your patronage and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
-The Windows Live Expo Team.
Several months ago Yahoo retired its free classifieds section (classifieds.yahoo.com). Now Microsoft is following yahoo. While another internet tycoon google is still continuing it's free classifieds known as google base. MySpace and FaceBook are also continuing their free classifieds sections so far.
According to Alexa less than 1% people who visit live.com visit its free classified section expo.live.com. So it is not surprising that Microsoft couldn't find Windows Live Expo profitable and now shutting down.
