RadishTM Veteran Posted April 16, 2006 Veteran Share Posted April 16, 2006 Right, I've been under a rock so to speak :laugh: - which my forthcoming question will indicate :p What is Windows Live Messenger? This is what happens when you don't keep up with Microsoft betas ;) Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightmarE D Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 It's been a public beta since build 566 came out ;) That's nothing new. The only new thing is the news about the refresh build coming within the next few days with the new UI and other new features. Honestly it's nothing new really. Once the screenshots showing the new UI leaked a couple weeks ago, they said the refresh would most likely be out in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slimy Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 @Radish™, The next version of msn messenger, under the live series. It will be called Windows Live Messenger 8, the last version was Msn Messenger 7.5 Major features include: a new ui, ability to talk to people while in appear offline mode and sharing folders.

Scirwode Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 I did hear they were going to have a UI refresh but I can't for the life of me remember. Anyway, I'm waiting patiently for the new build of Messenger though I am a bit peeved that WMP 11 hasn't even come out yet :blink: . PSG22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoochieMamma Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 this would make the product better: tabbed convos, no ads, 3 way video convos (+fullscreen) and all the other ideas suggested by users on connect.microsoft.com Damn right (Y) I just pray that Microsoft stops thinking about a trivial part of the software like the UI (which most people will change anyway) and put something worthwile into Messenger.

statm1 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Yea about the yahoo integration.. what i heard was that it was coming sometime this summer.. We will probably see it with wlm 8.5 and yahoo 8 or something.. since yahoo 7.5 is already in beta and has been for awhile now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNay Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 (edited) Lol ... encrypted contacts, so no one steals my friends ... :laugh: I'm glad its going to be encrypted :) It's pretty easy to find your e-mail and you don't even need to sign in or use the auto-save username feature :blink: Imagine this, spyware or whatever it may be goes to that directory, scans the directory and gets your e-mail and sells them and spams them (its already bad as is). Also if you save your chats all your contacts e-mails are in your received files folder under history, the only thing missing is the @domain part and i'm sure most of them are hotmail ;) Edited April 17, 2006 by thenay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
