Yahoo Messenger for Microsoft Windows Vista

This is the first instant messenger program made specifically for Windows Vista, and boy it looks HOT! I think I’ll start using Yahoo messenger more often if they keep up the good work! I’m currently using OpenSource GAIM!

Below are some information from Yahoo:

Built from the ground up specifically for Microsoft Windows Vista, this all-new version combines the reliable and easy-to-use features you’ve always loved from Yahoo! Messenger with the cutting-edge experience of this new operating system.

  • Instant message, voice, webcam video, and more
  • Use the integrated Yahoo! Messenger Sidebar gadget to keep up with the friends that matter most
  • Also add Windows Live™ Messenger friends to your contact list to see when they’re online and IM them
  • Keep conversations organized by dragging and dropping them into one tabbed window
  • Brand new emoticons, program icons and alert sounds
  • Instantly change the look and feel of your Yahoo! Messenger interface
  • Automatic groups are created in your contact list based on your Yahoo! interests (i.e. Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Football league)

Heres a cool video of how it works straight from Yahoo Labs!
