Windows Live Messenger to shut down?

I still call it MSN Messenger for whatever reason. Anyway, it appears Microsoft is going to can it on March 2013, which I guess means a lot of us are going to have to find new ways to chat. It looks like they're trying to beef up Skype.

Do you use Windows Live? Are you going to jump ship to Skype or just use another messenger?

I've not used Windows Live in aeons. I do, however, occasionally use skype to keep in touch with friends/family.

I stopped using that ages ago. Skype is better.

Oh isn't that something! When that's all I use anymore. Why would they launch Outlook.com with Messenger? Lol. Maybe they plan to just swap it out with Skype.

Nonetheless, maybe it is time to decide what our main choice of IM we want to use between each other. Since Messenger did remove all my contacts anyways. Lol.

If you update to Skype 6.0 (for some reason, I had to go to their site to download it, because the client's autoupdater wasn't working), one of the first things it'll ask you when you start it up is if you want to import all your WLM contacts. After that, from what I can see on mine, you can still talk to all your WLM folks that haven't switched over, even while using Skype.

I would love to import my contacts... if they all didn't... I don't know... I only have one now. I thought I was just missing everyone online until I went on the full version of WLM... I didn't have any! Lol.

Eh. I have messenger but I use Skype more and even before that yahoo. The only thing I really liked about MSN was the fact that you had so many color options for fonts.

I suggest Skype, because it has both a free group calling as well as chatting feature. In addition, it has much more varieties of emoticons to be utilized throughout chats.

Gonna agree with DRUK here. Perhaps we should all share our skype names?
