Windows Live Messenger On Screen Display
Netking sent me an email earlier today with a link to a nice software program that I did not know before. The author itself calls it a Windows Live Messenger – On Screen Display. This plugin for the Windows Live Messenger displays all incoming messages right on your desktop. This is indeed a very neat feature because messages are displayed without opening a chat window at all. You can stay up to date by reading the latest messages right on your desktop, very useful if you are currently working and don’t have the time to open the messenger. You could still read everything and react on important messages at once and all other later on.
