What's so great about WLM? by alegator on 07-06-2006 at 05:08 AM

Can someone tell me what is the true advantage of WLM over MSN Messenger in terms of funcionality that would justify the upgrade? I'm still using MSN, very stable and doing all that's supposed to do. Thanks!!!

ability to search for contacts, offline messages.... and several small things... which i am probably forgetting :P

With MSN you can also call PC-to-PC, although I prefer Yahoo or Skype for that (better quality). As for sharing folders...isn't that dangerous securitywise? Offline messages...that's a good one, is it working fine? Anyone tested it?. I sign in within 4 seconds...not bad, but it wouldn't hurt faster sign in. What do you mean by "ability to search for contacts?

Yes it works fine with me....

As for searching..
you type the name of your contact and it appears, instead of looking all over the contact list....

You said you saw it on Plus!3.
That in no way means its copyrighted. But, meh, lets stop here.

Regarding offline messaging in WLM, isn't PLus! "set comeback message" in MSN Messenger sort of like offline messaging?


RE: What's so great about WLM? by Voldemort on 07-06-2006 at 06:06 AM

Yes, it is, thats why it isnt included in Plus! Live.
