Windows Live Essentials 2011 beta 2 available now

some people say that you can talk to people on facebook chat on msn but it's only available in a few countries so far, anyone confirm this?

few new options when the program opens

all the options have been re-arranged with some new options

still cant see the option to save contact list although in the settings there is a option to tick if you dont want to save contact list or social updates :S

anyone know what these are..

show timestamps on messages
show expanded footer in conversation windows

some things in full view

click on add > add people from other services > select from your contact list – brings up a whole heap of people who use msn that you dont have

click on all > choose one of the options (not sure if this is new)

I've tried it added my contacts from both Myspace and Facebook but i don't know. No one was coming online.. i went to the site and logged in to see and of course there's
people online. I haven't tried Beta 2 takes to long for a dial-up user..guess i'll stick to BETA 1 until the Final.

thanks for answers

Neowin.net - Talk to your friends on Facebook from Windows Live Messenger

for anyone in those countries who have fb chat working from msn can you tell me what contacts it imports? is it all your friends list?
