msn service had problems again...

showime me or others offline when they were online

not once has the yahoo messenger service had a problem


How can MS screw up so bad?

Greetings,

Actually early on during the life of Messenger there was a time when the entire service was
down for nearly a month.

I seem to also recall at least 3-4 day outages at some point too. This isn't new stuff.

On yahoo I have only noticed a problem once! And that was very recently,
AFTER the MSN integration! Perhaps MS infected yahoos service too! LOL

Perhaps MSN has a much larger user base to deal with...
