Microsoft releases Microsoft Messenger 6.0 for Mac

Software giant Microsoft has finally launched a new version of their messenger application for the Mac platform.

The latest version now is Microsoft Messenger 6.0 for Mac.

This release comes as a universal binary, which would make the software perform optimally on the newer Intel, powered Macs and the older generation of Mac.

Microsoft claims that this release is a key update for personal users and it comes with interoperability support with Yahoo! Messenger.

They have provided two services support for this update. The personal version works with the Windows Live Messenger service, while a corporate account uses the Microsoft Office Live Communications Server service.

Some of the features of this updated messaging product include:
- Chat with Yahoo! Messenger contacts
- Add a status message that your personal contacts can see
- Share what you are listening to in iTunes with your personal contacts
- Create, send, and receive custom emoticons with personal contacts
- Send and receive custom animated emoticons with personal contacts
