Windows Live Messenger

Don't get confused with the Windows Messenger.
The Windows Messenger sux. This! is Windows Live Messenger.


Quite a lot of people are using now, I know.
For those who aren't, I can still introduce to you, can't I?

ok, here goes...
Windows Live Messenger currently has the 2nd most users around the world. Excluding United States, It's the top! With many functions and extensions, you could do almost anything, from instant messenging to video conference.

IMO, besides instant messenging, the most useful feature I could say is folder sharing. Now you doesn't need to worry about network disconnection.

What's the difference between file sending and file sharing?
In the old ways, you send file tru instant messenger. If one side disconnected, the whole file transfer would end up failed. BUT, with file sharing, the files you put in the shared folder will immediatly start transfering when both parties are online. If the file(s) are sending half way, and one side disconnected, the transfer will CONTINUE the next time both sides are online again.

What's the big deal you asked?
Have you tried sending one big file to another, like, 200MB file. You waited for quite some time, and finally it reached 99%...and so...your computer hangs!!! WTF YOU HAVE TO DO IT ALL AGAIN!!! so THAT'S the big deal. With file sharing, you wouldn't hafta worry about this.

I guess, this is enough talk already. So here's the link...
