Review About Yahoo Messenger

Yahoo Messenger is a messenger programs. Yahoo Messenger got all the features a messenger software should have.

With Yahoo Messenger you can select who, from all people, should see you online. You can also login "invisible to everyone", just to check who is online, and thus set the options to be invisible to people who you don't wish to be able to see you.

Using SMS service helps you to send messages to people's mobile phones. Also, they can reply to the Yahoo messenger from their mobiles. But you must consider the international messaging rates for your mobile service provider if you are the one replying. Also, there is a 5 message limit. After sending 5 messages to a mobile number, the other person should reply.

Other Feature in Yahoo Messenger is Games. But there are not many games in it. Sometimes, the games may not work correctly, in case you have a slow connection.

Chat rooms are also part of Yahoo Messenger. You see a lot of people talking rubbish. Many of them will be typing numbers or some letters and characters, etc. I could say that the chat rooms are not that well monitored. There is also a conferencing feature. You can call all of your friends to login at a particular time and chat with them, just like in a chat room.
