Microsoft Messenger 6.0 Released

that is gut-busting good news actually. wonder if they have plans to support audio and video in the future.

Update now. Thanks for the information.

Bruce

yeah thanx for the credits...i hope next version will have sound and video

What a god damn joke they still have not built support for audio and video.

Why even bother eh? Everyone is god damn hungry so they go and give us half an uncooked potato. No thanks, i'd rather wait until the steak.

And just like the other post here, I'll keep using aMSN, thank you very much.

Does someone has a screenshot?

i't keeps the same gui. just 2 differences, now universal binary and animated emoticons. quite disappointing.

The Microsoft Mac team has an official blog called mac mojo. there is where they talk about stuff like f.eks the audio/vidio stuff in Microsoft Messenger

Thanks, I tried it but it has just a bunch of features than the latest Windows releases... I'll Mercury Messenger on my dock

Only animating smiley and it's universal binary now? Gosh everybody is waiting for audio and video. They should save the universal and smiley update together with video and audio. Poor Microsoft

quote from Mac Mojo about A/V in mac messenger:

"I said in my first blog entry that I’d try to shed light on how feature decisions get made, give you some examples, and address why A/V isn’t in this release.

The short version: we are working on it.

Right now, Windows Live Messenger (WLM) and Live Communications Server (LCS), are not quite in sync on their audio and video technologies. But, they are on a path to join up and move to a shared protocol in upcoming releases. Rather than write two sets of code only to have to throw one away in the coming months, we’re writing that common protocol for the Mac, and as we all converge we’ll have A/V in Messenger for Mac*."
