New Cool Windows Messenger Feature
So this week I updated to the most recent versions of Windows Live Writer and Windows Messenger… One cool feature that I was completely unaware of until I left the house and forgot to disconnect my laptop from Windows Live messenger and expected to get the error “you are logged on to another computer” when i connected on my desktop but didn’t. I saw something new on the top of the application window reading “available in 2 places”.
You can now be logged into Messenger in two places at once. This can be a mobile device or a laptop and desktop. The features are noted here
This removes the need to have two Live Messenger logins for multiple places…You can be online both places at once and even continue conversations from the other device or location…. Start in the office, continue the conversation on the Windows Mobile device and finish the conversation on the laptop at home. From the Live Messenger Site: “If you receive a message while you’re signed in on multiple devices, the message will appear on each device that you’re signed in on. Also, if you perform an action on one device, such as open or close a conversation window, the action will occur on all devices.”
Really Cool!
