Vista - (OT) Something NEW and exciting on live messenger!

http://www.messengergroupchat.com/

Messenger Group, developed with Windows Live Messenger platform, is a
service for a group of Messenger users chatting together in real time. Maybe
you think that Windows Live Messenger supports multi-conversation, but this
multi-conversation is temporary, will be dismissed with the finish of
conversation.

Compared with multi-conversation, Messenger Group is an existing group with
each member in, members can talk together at any time without creating a
temporary multi-conversation. Messenger Group makes a group of people
connecting closer, no matter whether they are on your Messenger contact
list. You can create a group for a team, a department or a company to chat
online together.

Now if you have a Windows Live ID, then go to Messenger Group website
(http://www.messengergroupchat.com) to create your own Messenger Group.

Free to create Messenger Groups
Each Messenger Group can have 900 members at most
Group manager can change group name and display picture
Group manager can set an administrator to help manage group
Group member can change their nickname in the group

anybody wants to know my #channels, just ask.

lol.. that's exactly what came across my mind when I saw this...

But you have to understand that new users (and that means the majority of
users alive today)
have not used IRC. Also its more user friendly. Also it's a good way for MS
to push their messenger.. (stab) lol

I think there was something like this on ICQ too... Live messenger has still
to catch up with all the features that chat client had in 2000! lol

Despite all its bugs the number one improvement of Windows Live over MSN
that I had previously is that Windows Live apps function without Messenger
loaded or even configured. 'Nuff said about Messenger. Hey, wanna chat
later?

thing, I doubt it will get very popular anyway. Look at the footer on the
webpage.
I tried ICQ a decade ago, but it was just full of spammers, weirdoes and
lamers. Oh, and a lot of Russian women looking to get married. I suppose
they will not be in such a hurry to leave anymore.

Ah.. you are right, its not an MS product.. but its not a real add-on,
something you download and install.

You just add a contact on the live messenger contact list and this starts
the whole service
that includes a specific additional sidebar with contacts..

its pretty cool..

I tried it already
that was some fake names that all led to dating services.. in other words
more spam.

Oh and I use Miranda IM. Much leaner. LEAN. A good way of thinking. I
hope MS tries it someday.

Miranda IM is an open-source multi protocol instant messenger client
for Microsoft Windows. It's smaller, faster, easier!
