Pros: free, multi-functional, fun, can download interesting skins, can make FREE LONG DISTANCE PHONE CALLS!!
Cons: can be a bit buggy still at times
Although I am a big fan of ICQ, I must say that I really am impressed with Yahoo Messenger these days. I initially downloaded the chat program during it's first few trial versions and found it a bit buggy. It was mostly useful for communicating with my...

Pros: Voice Chat
Cons: none really big
I love Yahoo messenger just as much as ICQ and AOL instant message, But I love the Yahoo chat factor. I live away from my family and friends, so as many of you know. Long distance phone calls are not very cheap, but not no more. Ever since I found Yahoo...

Pros: easy to use
Cons: none so far
This little must-have has been with me for many months now, and I can't say enough about how helpful it's been to me. I communicate with my family and friends easily. Even newbies in the family use the Messenger with ease.
It features News...

Pros: e-mail notices now tell you WHO is sending the e-mail
Cons: buddy list approval doesn't jibe with beta users and non-beta users
Because I'm adventerous and because I already enjoy using Yahoo! Messenger, I decided to download the latest version which is currently in Beta testing.
Frankly, I don't see much difference in the current non-beta version and the beta version. I...

Pros: Simple, Easy, Free
Cons: Unpredictable, Unreliable, Frustrating
Yahoo Messenger can be counted upon to deliver messages to chat friends around the world, but the question at stake here is: how quickly?
I am not referring to a slight delay of the message arriving on someone else's screen, but I am talking...

Pros: good way to keep in touch
Cons: can't think of any
I really like Yahoo Messenger. It is a great way to keep up with your friends. I use it to talk to my chat friends and some of my old high school friends. It always alerts me when a friend is online, no matter what i am doing. Yahoo Messenger is also a...

Pros: easy to use and navigate in
Cons: none
The first time I used a messenger service I thought it was the neatest thing around, and I still do. I use Yahoo Instant Messenger at home and at work. This is so much better than MSN Messenger.
It is easy to talk with your friends and...

Pros: voice chat, great features, can block those who annoy you
Cons: sometimes busy, and gives the boot sometimes, voice not available to mac users
I love yahoo messenger. Not without its faults, it has the best voice chat features on the net. I currently run a club on yahoo, and we use yahoo messenger and chat every night. I have become a professional chatter. Using the voice feature is...

Pros: good to find friends
Cons: don't always get your messages
Yahoo was one of the first messenger's I downloaded to keep track of friends and chat in real time with them. Now that I've used them for over 2 years now I can't say I'm really impressed yet I can't say they are the lowest of the low. Through out the...

Pros: Simple, Good built in features
Cons: none
I started using Yahoo Instant messenger when it came out as beta couple of years ago and have been using it side by side with AOL Instant messenger (AIM), since AOL would not let Yahoo messenger access their user list I had to find a way to communicate...

Pros: Versatile, connects where others can't
Cons: Connection drops a lot, lost messages
The Yahoo! Messenger Utility is a nice little program, very diverse. It lets you chat with people, check stock quotes, weather and sport scores. It's designed to do a lot. It's also the only program of its type that I have been able to get through the...

Pros: when working can talk voice chat with friends
Cons: don't work all the time
I like the yahoo messenger, when it's working. When working you can voice chat for free, offline a message to someone, and talk one on one with a person.
The voice chat is where it's so much like a phone. Your talking to live people which is...

Pros: Easy to use, fast messaging
Cons: loads a little slow
Messenger is great, if you use your yahoo! mail a lot or just have a lot of friends on yahoo!. It has all the options a normal instant messenger would normally have plus extras like stock quotes, mail, your own yahoo! page, and lots more. The only...

Pros: Great integration with other Yahoo services
Cons: Not as widely used
I tried this long ago and wasn't impressed; I've been using AIM daily for 3+ years, and while lots of other people are on AIM, it lacks some definite big features of YIM. The latest (beta) version I downloaded made me a believer. Check out the features:...

Pros: leave messages for folks not on line
Cons: difficult to block strangers who message you
Unless you are placing personal ads on the yahoo website, Yahoo messenger is not a chat client to bother with. It utilizes more resources than it needs, slowing down other net projects if you have limited bandwidth.
It's single most selling...
