MSN Web Messenger

Did you guys look at MSN Web Messenger?

MSN has launched it’s web based version of MSN Messenger in beta form recently.

Congratulations to the web messenger team for getting to the same point Yahoo Messenger has been at for about 4 years and ICQ for around 2 years.

It’s really hard to get excited about MS technology, they are always so far behind the curve. Avalon and Longhorn are about the only things really interesting on the horizon for MS. They need to trim the fat and get smaller. They move too slowly now. Getting MS to change direction is like turning an aircraft carrier. They haven’t been able to move fast since the pre-pre dot-com days when they started to focus on the internet.
