Windows Messenger to deliver news

Instant messenger client will display Reuters headlines

Anthony Dhanendran, Computeract!ve 02 Mar 2007

Users of Microsoft's instant messenger can now get news alerts from Reuters.

Windows Live Messenger now includes the ability to display the latest news headlines to users, if they sign up for the service. Users can sign up at the MSN site.

The RSS feeds include world news, entertainment, business, sports and a category of strange news from around the world. The program can be customised so it only delivers news when required by the user, who can set 'quiet times' when they don't want to be disturbed.
