Yahoo! Messenger:: For the web

A new Web-based version of Yahoo's instant-messaging application lets people use Yahoo Messenger on any browser and any Internet-connected computer rather than having to download it to a hard drive & install it.

Yahoo Messenger for the Web offers functions that the downloaded version does not. Consumers can, for example, maintain multiple conversations in one window with different tabs instead of opening up chats in multiple windows.

Yahoo! Messenger for the Web is less than one-tenth the size of the downloaded client. It doesn’t have all the client features (like voice and webcam), but offers all the key communications and self-expressive features you need to be a messenger.

You can access the Yahoo web messenger using following URLs
