The Messenger Team has posted about
taking in feedback for the next version of Windows Live Messenger. They even listed a few requests already made like Tabbed IM, Multiple Windows Live ID’s, Advanced Group/Contact Behavior, and more. If you got some feedback for the Messenger Team - head on over to their blog and a leave a comment! I like the idea of Tabbed IM windows but I seriously would like to see a complete UI overhaul of Windows Live Messenger. I’d like to see the UI get shined up a bit more at least if not a overhaul. When you have IM clients like the new
Yahoo! Messenger for Windows Vista coming - would be nice to have Messenger present itself to be just as nice. I would also like to see the Messenger Team adopt animated avatars and use the same avatar formatting as say AIM. When I go to a upcoming movie site (like
Spider-Man 3) and they have neat animated avatars, I’d like to use them in Windows Live Messenger.
