[Web IM] Web Messenger in Windows Live Hotmail

The much awaited and one of the most asked for feature, web messaging from Windows Live Hotmail and People page is now live. What this means is, if you are on a computer, which doesn’t have Windows Live Messenger installed, you can still send IMs to your Messenger contacts!

What are the features that come with Web Messenger?

1.) Send Instant Messages to your contacts through the Web Messenger. 

2.) In Hotmail, if one of your Messenger contacts sends you e-mail, you’ll see their Messenger availability indicated in green, yellow, or red right by their name. If it’s green, click it and instantly start chatting.

3.) If you have more than one Windows Live ID, you can sign in to web Messenger and regular Messenger at the same time, with different IDs.

4.) People can only see your availability if you’ve agreed to be their Messenger contacts. You can sign in and use Hotmail or any other Windows Live service without signing in to web Messenger, so nobody can start chatting with you until you decide to let them know you’re available.

The feature is currently rolled out to users in Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, Netherlands, Norway and USA. The feature was rolled out to users in France, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Spain and UK in the last month. If you happen to be in an area not listed above, you might have to wait for a little more time.
