Windows Live Messenger Beta open to the public
This post was published 4 years 5 days ago which may make its actuality or expire date not be valid anymore. This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.I think this news may make a few individuals seeking a Windows Live Messenger invite a little happier.
Microsoft has opened the doors to the general public to test their latest Messenger application and Live service.
Your online world gets better when everything works simply and effortlessly together. That’s the basic idea behind Windows Live. So the things you care about – your friends, the latest information, your e-mails, powerful search, your PC files, everything – comes together in one place. This is a brand new Internet experience designed to put you in control. And this is just the beginning – you’ll see many more new services in the coming months.
Grab your copy from the official Live Messenger Beta page.
No offense Microsoft, but with each successive WLM8 beta release you make available, the aesthetics of the UI continue to go downhill. Bring back the original WLM8 interface before the current build returns to it’s stark [original] Messenger roots.
how do u get it. It still says u need an invite.
Yeah, for now, it seems you still need to be accepted by the ‘Microsoft Team’.
Shame, I used to feel special.
The GUI in the current build is good.
It’s very nice, seems lighter the gui less clunky !!! although I still prefer Trillian, if wasn’t the video conf problem on it.
btw: about invites, you need to wait until Microsoft writes you back, or someone that has it, each person receive 20 invitations.

The prior GUi was nice with changeable colours, but the new release looks cleaner and more ‘MS’, Overall it is good, theres just one gripe – the shared folders. I help people out a lot and send them files and pictures but the shared folders setup just gets in the way as a small minority use windows live.
