Example: user: myfriendexample@yahoo.co.uk
myfriendexample@yahoo.co.uk is fictious although not recommended to add unless this user is really your friend

Background

friendly@hotmail.com wants to add myfriendexample@yahoo.co.uk to their windows live messenger list while the friend has the latest version builds (8.0) of yahoo Messenger with voice

Currently Yahoo Interoperatbility is restricted to restricted Yahoo Locale(s)

As long as your contact uses these you be able to talk to them

However all the contacts have to be screenname@yahoo.com REGARDLESS of nationality locale of your Yahoo Email (applicable to non US/ @yahoo.com domains)

myfriendexample@yahoo.com will be the same as myfriendexample@yahoo.co.uk for example – you still recieve your email (although its advised to send any corrospondances from windows live email addresses (@msn.com / @live.com / @hotmail.com etc) to the locale address [in this case myfriendexample@yahoo.co.uk]

Sign into Windows Live Messenger

enjoy! – Yahoo contact will be able to be found (if online) by their yahoo icon in the ‘online’ group when they accept (hopefully) and next online

Windows Live Messenger – I want but its not supported! What can i do?

There are 2 main choices, not worry LOL – accept decision not going to have any interoperatbility or think of ways to continue your IM fun in other ways (there are options hehe).

 

There are lots of great new features in Windows Live Messenger but dependant on what new windows live feature is craved by you – MSN Messenger 7.0 sadly is the final version of MSN Messenger that non Windows XP or Vista can use by the offerings of MSN

2 features come to mind stright away – offline messenging and interoperatbilty with Yahoo. Those on Windows 98, 2000 do have a option of interoperatbility via the yahoo messenger route (if you can cope) which Windows 98 & 2000 is supported still (currently – september 2006) – unlike sadly for those on Windows 2000 Windows Live Messenger do not plan support T his will be unpopular by the loyal MSN users on Windows 98, 2000 (although number reduces daily)

There is also the option for offline messenging via web2messenger.com (available to all ) – i use it for my Live Space but can be used anywhere its just a link to a page then send messages.

Mac OSX Users do have more hope as rumors that interoperatbilty will be in the future Yahoo and Windows Live/ Microsoft offerings as theres suggestions they still supporting these users – Yey

wonders should i do a petition (for my good deed of 2006 ) to recommend allow offline messenging (currently 3rd party [web2messenger.com] to all) and a limited interoperatbility of IM networks for Windows 98,2000 and OSX and Linux (have to be politically balanced and think it should be fair – PCs that older or not windows may still have some life in them
