With Windows Phone 8, we get the option to back up our texts through the cloud. But where can we view them online?

I have the backup option checked in settings, but I can't find my texts anywhere in skydrive. In outlook.com, in messaging history I only see my Facebook interactions, but not my SMS messages.

I tried looking for the same thing but no deal. I do know it works as I reset my phone and the texts magically appeared.
 
You cannot view them. They are part of your Skydrive account (according to MS) but really the best way to look at it is that it's a service tied to your MS account and they don't count toward any storage.
