Microsoft has finally decided to phase out MSN Web Messenger; the service will be officially retired on June 30, 2009 (this Tuesday!). MSN Web Messenger launched back in August 2004. The replacement (pictured on the side) is the Messenger service that is integrated into Windows Live Hotmail. Screenshots of the new service first began to appear in January and slowly trickled out to all users over the past few months as the Wave 3 of Hotmail was finalized. Microsoft's official recommendation is to use Windows Live People to use the web version of Messenger but using Hotmail will likely be more convenient to most.
