Yahoo Messenger 7 Launched

Friday 12 August 2005 @ 3:31 pm

Yahoo has just launched its latest version of Instant Messenger (IM), Yahoo Messenger 7.
VoIP
New features that it has including Voice over IP (VoIP), which enables you to make PC-to-PC calls around the world. What you need is only a microphone and speaker/headphone. With this feature, you are able to receive voicemail when you are offline or away. You can record call history for each and every call too. Besides, you are able to select your desired ringing tone as well.

It’s time to get a pair of headphone and microphone, if you still don’t have one. I suppose this new feature inevitably poses threat to another free VoIP service provider, Skype. Meanwhile, MSN Messenger will need to catch up again. :p

Photo Sharing
Another really nice feature is photo sharing, it’s real time photo sharing, you can either drag any photo in your PC and drop it in the IM chatting window, or share from your Yahoo Photos account. From the sharing you can save those picture in your Yahoo Photo account or into your PC directly.

Not to be forgotten, there are a few more new emoticons, like :-c , : )] , ~X ( , etc come along with this latest release.

I’m installing it now, enjoy everyone !! :)

    Actually I like another of its news feature, which can show the previous conversation if you close the chatting windows, then reopen it. :)

    Really? I wish I have some Taiwanese friends there for me to chat with. Kekeke …

    Too bad most of my friends in YM have not upgraded to YM7 yet, otherwise I’ll definitely drop a miss call to them. :p
