So what's the deal with this thing?  They delayed its closure once, and now days after its official closure, I'm still connected.  I have a funny feeling their strategy to migrate everyone to Skype will backfire, and many will just say fuck it, why do I need an IM program anyway when I have a smartphone? 

Refalm:
They will close the 3rd party apps next year, but the official MSN Messenger will stop working now.

I don't know anyone who uses it anyway, everyone is using WhatsApp or Facebook.

bedouin:
Strange that they're being nice about it.

Refalm:
It's because some businesses use MSN Messenger to chat to other companies, since it has Lync integration.

Lync users will be migrated to Skype integration for out-of-company chat next year.

bedouin:
They pushed out a Messenger update through Office for Mac's updater yesterday, and it's still on the Messenger network.  Confusing.
