History
MSN Web Messenger was first launched in August 2004. On the contact list for MSN Messenger users, the status of a contact using Web messenger is either displayed as a globe, or by appending the word (Web) after their name, depending on the version of MSN Messenger used. In September 2007, the service was released to internal beta testers and is not available to the public.
The new version of Windows Live Hotmail will have Web Messenger integrated into its service.
