agree with your thoughts about web im bar (oh course with the themes enhancement at a minimum)

I not witnessed the March and April version (funny considering most of my accounts are en-gb living in the UK)

but going on what observed and used in February (so may changed since) even tho it was very short lived!

needs a better offline and online listing ability.

This could be a sort by status of the contact list page implement they had then (Feb 09) or something similar to the meebo, facebook, myspace and windows live web im bars

Store chat logs

Store not just access chat logs idea but save them under a folder such as ‘My Chats’

Tabalate popout

tab the popout.aspx implementation so only need 1 internet browser tab window for multiple chats

Cross browser support

Work in Firefox and any browser that is not IE7 (based on Feb 09) Neowin todays report says it supposely works in the ‘main browsers’

in more detail to your ‘send/ receive files’ suggestion it should send to the friends hotmail or skydrive storage

emoticons and formatting options needed as those in the client application e.g. bunny is missing along with formatting bold etc

Since February the follow main idea:

implement the web im all over Windows Live - the web bar is a good idea to do this [Myspace, Facebook and meebo like]. Settings could be in the windows live headers as what might be what you were suggesting or settings could be on the web bar with display web bar settings in individual services options.

If I have like 7 pages of contacts…Is it that I will have to browse through all of them once to just see who all are online ? in other words, where is the functionality of being able to see contacts status wise, whether they are online or not !

Agree with you Ad. It has to be damn easy to use. Just like google. The only thing missing in hotmail is the simplicity.
