Kind of weird they would put it on their blog and say it's available for download at ideas.live.com and then it's not :D

They didn say it was available.

They said that when it is released all testers can download it....

Will it be released today (uk time)? Or will i have to wait while tommorrow?

it cant be as my mate in the UK has it and he only lives 10 mins away from me!!! :whistle:

And in what country does he supposedly lives according to his passport-profile?

It is only available in certain countries, I don't really which ones exactly.

On the Messenger blog site it says that all current beta testers can download this version (.566).

I am a beta tester and I went to ideas.live.com to download the latest version and the version that comes down is still old (.356).

Where the heck do you get this version (.566)?

If you're a beta tester why would you go to ideas.live.com and not to the connect website?

Do you mean that you are a friend of a beta tester with an invite account maybe?

Oh, for christ's sake, quit being a pedant!

I was invited by somebody to the WLM beta - does anyone have news on when it will be available to invited beta testers?

oh for crying out loud!

This will be released to beta testers and invitee's at the same time, according to the Messenger Blog.

An updated version of Windows Live Messenger will be released to all current WLM beta users. If you're not a beta user but want to be, sign up on our short wait list at http://ideas.live.com.

I rather have them create a new GUI for once instead of the same one for the past few versions :/. Personally I think WLM has got enough features allready (well big ones). Some of the existing ones could be improved.

It has too many features IMO. Nudges are annoying. Winks are eve worse. Sharing Folders, VOIP, video, basic text chats, logging of chats, and contact management are all that's needed. I wish they offer two version of WLM. One with everything and one without.

you meen a sorta WLMlite or something like that. I do agree that Nudges and winks are annoying. i would definately chose a Lighter version without nudges and winks etr. mabee one of the testers should sugest this 2 microsoft.

www.mess.be posted the changes.. but some of the things they said changed... was in build 0562

Don't forget that 0562 wasn't released to everyone, so not many people will have known about it, especially the standard invitees.

    • Remarkably based article from Garter - apparently there IS someone working there that actually understands mainframe systems.
    • Calling it TDS doesn’t answer the question: why did this site skip prior UFC games but review this one, at this exact political moment?
    • Its the timing of its release, mixed with the timing of the review mixed with the timing of the event, when this site never reviewed previous iterations of this game that I could find.
    • Instagram just got "a long-requested feature" by Hamid Ganji Instagram has finally added a new feature that has been "long-requested" and it allows users to write an individual caption for each image or video in a carousel. The feature will start rolling out this week, and it’ll be available to all users. Previously, Instagram only allowed a single caption for all regular posts and carousels. This made it harder for content creators to describe every scene in a carousel and often forced them to write longer captions. However, with this new feature, every slide in a carousel can have its own caption, which can be viewed by swiping left or right. To use the feature, when writing a caption for your post, select “Multiple captions” from the dropdown menu in the caption area. You can then write unique captions for each slide. By swiping through the carousel and selecting individual slides, a dedicated space for writing captions will appear. Instagram says the feature will help audiences get the right context at the right moment. The ability to assign a unique caption to each slide in a carousel could be particularly useful for content creators and brands on the platform. Instagram says the feature will begin rolling out this week. The new feature appears to have been well received by Instagram users, many of whom have been requesting it for a long time. However, users are now asking for additional features, such as the ability to add new slides to a carousel after it has been published. Instagram has been introducing several useful features lately, but users who want access to additional tools and perks can subscribe to the platform’s Instagram Plus offering. Priced at $3.99 per month, Instagram Plus includes exclusive features such as 48-hour Stories, more detailed post analytics, and the ability to tailor posts or Stories to specific audiences. The subscription includes 11 new features in total.
