The most used messaging application
I've been using Yahoo Messengers for a few years now and I've seen many improvements during this time. It still has a few problems, like crashing sometimes, refusing to connect because of some server problems or slow file transfers. But it has some cool features that other similar messaging application don't have. For example photo sharing that can be used just by drag and dropping the photos in your window, integrated Yahoo! Games, Environments for customizing your window background or Audibles. Ther's more: the last versions bring PC to Phone and Phone to PC Calls, even if doesn't work perfectly yet; this shows us that YM is a "live" application and Yahoo will keep improve it. Another "small detail" is that it's truly addictive and everyone's using it, so if you want to use something that everybody's using, that's YM!
