Messengers are probably the oldest and the most trusted means of communication over the internet. Here, is good news for those who are looking for 2011 version of Windows live messenger. A public beta of Windows Live Messenger 2011 has been released by Microsoft. The new version has advanced social networking availability and enhanced video conference services. We shall take a look at the various services provided by the new version of the Windows live messenger and try to find out what makes this version so different from the other versions of the same.
Well as indicated above this messenger has social networking availability and excellent video conferencing facilities. Although the video conferencing facilities were available in the messenger from before the social networking capabilities are a definite plus. The messenger in the previous version did not provide chatting facilities over the social networking sites like Facebook twitter and LinkedIn. The introduction of ameliorated chat window is the new feature that you can look after in windows instant messenger. This system allows you to view the chat in different threads. The windows will also show you if your friend is available in social networking sites like Facebook and twitter. This way you will have more control over your contacts and can chat with them in multiple platforms. “The new Windows Live focuses on aggregating social networks to help individuals and their friends facilitate more meaningful conversations and social experiences,” the company said in a statement.
The control panel is more advanced than the previous versions and there is better control over your profile than the previous versions of the messenger. The messenger is also integrated with the Bing search and features high definition video using which the users can send videos recorded on their webcams to their friends even if they are offline. One can easily de-duplicate the contacts on his friends list and remove the unnecessary junk on the chat screen. You can share photo videos in real time to watch together with friends. The new Windows Live focuses on aggregating social networks to help individuals and their friends facilitate more meaningful conversations and social experiences.
Then there is a feature using which one can ask other users to update their status but remember this will only be a request and not a force upon the other side as it is their computer after all. Also the feature for formatting the typed language and the emoticons is also provided to convey the exact emotions and imply the written notes to the correct moods. The messenger has also incorporated the custom status feature that is common in most other instant messengers like G talk and Yahoo!. This feature lets you show a custom message to the person on the other side of the chat which may be about when will you be available next or what you are doing meanwhile etc. etc.
But even after getting the most innovative features from its manufacturers the messenger still remains one step behind the other messengers as the new features are exactly not that new after all. The messenger still does not have a spell checker on board that would correct the spelling mistakes that one Is prone to make while chatting a very expected feature that one wants in his messenger but no one gets. Anyway, the new Windows Live Messenger 2011 has tried its best to give its users the most innovative features and has finally become one of the best if not the best messengers available!! So download windows live messenger 2011 now from microsoft website, and start exploring the newest features.

i have just spent an hour unistalling wlm 2011 from my pc and re installing the olde version
wlm2011 is the worst shit i have ever seen in my entire life,how fucking dare microsoft make such assumptions about there customers…………..first off when i wanna check my facebook i got to facebook,like many previous comments there trying to take a free ride with facebook……also in the privacy settings you now have to “uncheck” the box so microsoft can not spy on your surfing habbits(cheecky bastards)i felt this is a huge invasion of privacy,why the fuck do we have to search and uncheck shit…..also you can now no longer view your block/allow list,also you cant just block a contact now your only option to to delete……WTF grrrrrr.what if i dont want to chat to a certain contact of mine?with the old version you could just block then unblock not with the new version
microsoft wake the fuck up you used to excell at this kind of thing,stick to doing what you used to be good at,everything about this crap is an utter fail,i though it was bad enough when i swithced to windows 7 and that was bad enough………………………………take a fucking hint people like a clean simple interface,people dont like mass overload of info with shit there never gona use,what is wrong with you fucking people,i have just wasted an hour of my life trying to get the old msn back,and what the fuck was with the pop up add hassling me to download it everytime i checked my mail………keep up like this and you will go out of fuking business in a few years…..dont patronise and insult your customers god i was fuming……..
At first I thought adding Facebook on would be a good idea, and it’s not a bad one. But, with the new log-in notification boxes, my screen is always plagued with a bunch of people logging on and off of Facebook. This is extremely impractical. They should at least let us subscribe to who we want notifications from.
I hate having to scroll through hundreds of Facebook friends to reach the MSN ones, the new emotes are ugly and I miss the handwriting feature!
What a fail. Do not update.
can someone give the link for the old version? i can’t seem to find it… :( this version is crap…
I’m currently trying to get MSN 2010 back. >.<
It updated and it did this stupid Windows Live Essentials thing or what not. :(
