Great idea for Apollo

How about, when you pin a webpage to Start, there's an option to make it a "live tile;" what I mean, is the snippet of page you pin, will refresh every so often. This would be very useful IMO.

What do you guys think?

The idea of something like that kind of crossed my mind too. It'd be interesting, like an RSS feed of sorts. If you could set the timing of the updates though..

Yeah. They sort of tried that with WinMobile 6.5 and HTC Sense, and it literally drained your battery in a few hours. The first thing I disabled each time I hard reset.

I dont see why an app couldn't do that now using a background task

I was thinking it would be cool if the tile used the site's favicon.

Great to talk about it here! Thanks Have you made a suggestion either through the suggestion app or to the suggestion site of MS and voted for your idea or a similar one already on the boards? If not please consider doing so.

There's an app that does this already. It's called Web Tiles.

I suggested this already but my suggestion never really picked up any traction....only 6 votes...
