How to Add Your Own Homepage to MSN Messenger Live Today Windows
MSN provides services such as instant messaging and email. With MSN Messenger, you can talk to people on your Buddies List. Hotmail is an email service, from which you can send and receive messages. Both services use the same log-in and password, so you don't have to have a separate account, especially since you can chat with your contacts through your inbox. Another service available through both MSN Messenger and Hotmail is a profile page, or a homepage you can customize and use for social networking.
