Windows live messenger 2011 is finally out of beta and you can now download its final version from this page. Aside from the new user interface, there’re a variety of new features and improvement brought into this version. Yet, WLM is still the most preferable and the most widely used IM on the internet.

Microsoft Marries WLM 2011 with Facebook

Windows Live Messenger 2011 has now evolved into an IM application that does more than just chatting! The most impressive feature is the ability to connect Facebook, LinkedIn or MySpace to the Messenger. You can now check your friends’ statuses and updates, view your friends’ most recent photos, send a message, post a comment like what you did on facebook, send an email, all from a single interface!

Windows Live Messenger brings together updates from across the web to one place, so you don’t need to go to all of your social networks to see what’s going on with your friends. You can even add friends as favorites, so updates about them will always get priority and you never miss out on what’s important to you.

Chat in High Definition

With Windows Live Messenger 2011, you can chat in high definition (HD), watch videos together, share a photo slide show while you chat, and even play fun games. How exciting!

Walk With The Messenger

Stay in touch with friends when you’re on the go. See who’s online, chat, view social updates and share photos using your mobile phone—including Windows Phone, BlackBerry, iPhone, and more. Express yourself with emoticons and update your status message from your phone.
