O.P. A Step Backwards For Msn Messenger!
Another update today on the interior MSN Messenger site (We've named it internal before, but that seems to be the wrong name according to Microsoft). This time we won't tell you the release has been delayed again, no this time we are going to provide you with the information that all of the features we have mentioned earlier have been canceled. This also confirms our suspicion that the so called deluxe display pictures aka animated avatars are going to be an integrated version of the Korean MSN PowerPlus.
So what did change? They have added some more spam about getting MSN Explorer in order to use MSN Photo Swap. The graphics in the help files got a little bit smoother. And they have translated the new pages to many more foreign languages.
If we make a sum of all the changes and information available on the interior site, we can say without a doubt that even the scrawny MSN Messenger 4.0 for Mac update is going to be a bigger "revolution" than MSN Messenger 6.2.
- THIS IS A BIG STEP BACK FOR MICROSOFT THEY NEED TO GET THERE ACT TOGEATHER BEFORE USER'S MAJORLY SWITCH TO ANOTHER PEACE OF MESSAGING SOFTWARE!

?!?!?!? Stink. I really liked the animated DP idea. Oh well.
Delayed?? Does this mean msg plus will be too?? Cause patchou may want to make sure it is compatble with 6.2!!

RE: A Step Backwards For Msn Messenger!
First everybody gets high hopes because of some things someone found on a internal site and interpretes it like he wish, and now they blame MS for not keeping promises???? Please, let MS do there stuff, they know what they are doing. By hunting for things that aren't there, interpreting some test-sites, publishing things that aren't sure at all, and trying to get beta's etc.. you only make it harder on MS to develop things further....

No, Patchou said somewhere he won't wait for the release of 6.2 bacause he doesn't expect to have problems with it anyway.

just wait and see, MS will release it when they are ready, and only THEN we'll know for sure what the feature are... Before that, it is all speculation, even if MS puts some things on there internal site.

I think MSN Messenger might get to stage of adding pointless stuff rather then improvments... After the MSN 6 change most ohter things seem a pointless waste of resources...
