new features include:


Entirely New Design

The brushed steel skin, great new icons and new “Personal” and “Corporate” tabs make this dual-purpose program just as stylish and intuitive as other Mac programs.

Synchronised Status
Control the status of your personal and business accounts by synchronising them or setting one to “busy” while the other one indicates you are online.


Global Address Look-up
Easily add contacts from your company's global address list to your contacts list if you are on a corporate network using Microsoft Live Communications Server.

Redesigned Preferences

Graphic controls to the intuitive new preferences make it easy to customise displays, history settings and more.

Customisable Display Picture
Easily change your display name and picture depending on the account you are using.

Multiple File Transfer

Sharing files is easier since you can drag and drop more than one file at a time right into the chat window.

Animated and Customised Emoticons
Liven up messages to your friends with a new selection of customised emoticons.

It actually looks better than MSN Messenger, I would prefer that, even if the design was Windows-fired it seems to be better layed out and has more to give (even though it has less features). I like the name Microsoft Messenger, its nice. :)
