"Hi, today we're going to show you how to add contacts from your Yahoo messenger service to MSN messenger or as it's currently known Microsoft Windows Live Messenger. Okay, we're going to show you how you can add your Yahoo instant messenger contacts to MSN messenger. Well today fortunately it's not like even just a couple of years ago when you would have to add - have multiple accounts, you would need an AIM account to talk on AIM, and Yahoo to talk on Yahoo, and MSN to talk on MSN. Now, it's a lot simpler. You can directly add Yahoo account to MSN and vice versa if you like. So you see my current status, I am online and immobile and offline. Friends can see how to add a contact, you just press the add a contact button. And then simply go in and put in the address and the instant messaging address and we'll put in a Yahoo address, that's one of my addresses. And you go, these are other examples, blog.com, yahoo.com, lots of different kinds of instant messenger. If you'd like, you can add a personal invitation when you add someone so on the other side they can have a courtesy notification that you've added them, also say that via e-mail if you'd like. Now if you want you can subscribe to updates, contact those online, I prefer not to generally but that's a personal choice. Add a contact and that's it, you're done."
