Windows Live Messenger

Overview
Sure, you use Messenger to send instant messages, but did you know you can also make phone calls, video calls*, play games, and exchange pictures too?

Make it Personal
Add a fun new profile picture, change the color and design of the conversation window, let people know what music you’re listening to, or add a personal message that appears next to your name whenever you’re online.

Your favorite People
Add the people you chat with the most to your list of favorites at the top of your contact list. As soon as they’re ready to chat, you’ll see their profile pictures light up.

Share Photos
Drag photos right into the conversation window and show them off while you’re chatting. You can also let contacts save your photos on their computers.

Send SMS Messages
If someone you’re chatting with has to leave their computer, you can still use Messenger to send an SMS text message to their mobile phone.
