Not mine favorite instant messenger i have try`d it once,But still i prever Icq myself.
But the new improvements sounds very good to me.
Yahoo on Monday released the latest version of its popular instant messenger application, offering users the ability to stream popular music, play games and create cartoon backgrounds on the system. |
The company's new service enhancements are an attempt to counter the tremendous reach that competitors America Online and Microsoft have built up by embedding their applications on pre-packaged products.
Yahoo's goal is to build a real-time entertainment portal that allows users to watch movie clips and interviews, listen to new music, play games or simply personalize the chat window with comics like Dilbert or generic backgrounds.
The new comic and user-friendly cartoons fall in line with what some users want from their chatting experience. E-mail is regarded as the most efficient and simple way to communicate on the Web, but people have more of a fuzzy feeling toward instant messaging, according to a report by Forrester Research.
They are looking for quick, funny messages scattered throughout their work day.
