Great, but Skype is better ;)
a great IM client because it has a lot of features such as emoticons, sharing photos, winks, video call, and other things
With this application I don't need to login every time I visit f.ex. LiveSpaces
Whatever you try to replace your messaging needs, you will always come back to this software. WLM has features for every communication needs, and even more. The interface in 2009 is great but could have a better options window and a better integration with windows specially windows vista and above. Performance has space for improving but it's more than enough to use it comfortably.
Great IM software from Microsoft but adverts can be a bit intrusive for some. Needs more functionality such as Messenger Plus! add-on. I think the latest version is excellent!
