MSN Messenger 6.2 Feature List

MSN are almost ready to let loose their next revision of MSN Messenger 6, version 6.2. Although this version won't be a heavy upgrade like 6.0, there will still be minor improvements and features for users. Messenger 7.0 isn't due till later this year and is widely expected to be intergrated into MSN 10 - the next generation MSN Explorer.

As for Messenger 6.2, the following will be added/improved upon:

Animated Display Pictures (still unsure whether there will be animated custom emoticons)

Launch Site renamed "Fun & Games"

Fun & Games adds: Music Exchange (thought to be like the 3Â° way of sharing music)

Shared Browsing Enabled for MSN Subscribers

MSN Messenger "Connection Troubleshooter" (automatically solve many network connectivity problems)

Seems like it will be an interesting upgrade all round whether you're a current MSN Premium subscriber or not. We'll bring you any updated information and possibly a sneak peek look at Messenger 6.2 as and when we find out anything more. Messenger 6.2 is currently expected to be released worldwide on the 8th April.
