Windows Live Writer, missing?

Is it just me, or is Windows Live Writer missing.
I can't find it any where, try going to writer.live.com, it takes you to get.live.come/writer/overview, but it shows you a page saying Page Not Found.

wlw missing

Am I missing something here?

I never tried it yet, but there's a link to download it on their space: http://windowslivewriter.spaces.live.com/

Well, I tried their blog before, it actually links to writer.live.com.
But anyway, I found it, you can get it from http://www.windowslive.com/. From there you can select what Windows Live products to install. The thing is that Windows Live Writer is not an option on the web interface, but when you download and run the installer, you will find it in the options to install....go figure!

Hello,

I'm a developer on the Writer team. Sorry about your problem with the product page! We just double checked the URL that you're having trouble with and it appears to be working for us. Can you give it another try?

Thanks for reporting the problem and good luck!

Hey Charles,
Thanks, it seems to be working. But when you get to the page where you select what softwares you want to install, Windows Live Writer doesn't appear as an option, it only appears in the installer, which is a bit confusing.

Hi Wessam,
I have been using this tool for some time. It is really cool.

I checked this link before, this link doesn't mention Windows Live Writer any where, you only see it in the installer, which is strange.
