It’s a pity this feature is 2 years late. – Support for Avatars, display images and sounds:įinally the mac user can view avatars of his buddies and set display images. p.s… Am I the only one who thinks the PC messenger looks cooler? It’s not very often a mac user is stuck with an inferior interface!
You’re stuck with what they’ve dished out. Also, there is no way to customize the skin or theme. Although there is a lot of the ichat, itunes kinda feeling, the interface could still do with a lot of improvement. So now the IM client actually ‘looks and feels’ like a mac OSX version. Here are the main ‘features’ which Yahoo are touting on the download page…….
It’s Version 3.0 Beta 1 (that means more betas to come……. I downloaded the latest release of Yahoo Messenger for the Mac from here. That’s why I was curious (more than anything else) to check out the new release of Y! IM and see what exactly they worked on for so long. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out why a large chunk of the mac community subsequently got bitten by the Adium bug. MSN gave up on its mac messenger project long back and Yahoo delayed a new release for years.
Their interfaces were bad and the apps lacked solid features. When I first switched to macs, I quickly realized that the MSN and Yahoo IM clients were substandard on the mac platform and paled in comparison to their PC cousins. A look at the latest Yahoo Messenger for Mac (Version 3.0 Beta 1)
