After the announcements yesterday about Microsoft"s new "live" services the company held a press conference detailing all the products in the Microsoft Live platform.
The company demo"d what is set to be Windows Live Messenger (the next generation of MSN Messenger). Similar to what we exclusively revealed months ago (Wave 11), the screenshots show a simplified interface and a fresh coloured feel. The next generation Messenger is expected to beta within the month and Microsoft"s MSN team is aggresively seeking new testers for the upcoming client.
Windows Live Messenger is expected to intergrate better PIM functionality, Skype like calling features, Windows Live Local intergration and better support for MSN Spaces.
Thanks to eagle eyed Niall for taking some photos at the event.
