The VoIP Non Event Of The Month

Yahoo Messenger with Voice is out of Beta…YAWN 🙁

Sorry Jeff and Brad, you may be my pals and all, but having your agency send out a press advisory on a Thursday is about as silly as it gets if you want anyone to pay attention to what is supposed to be real news. But then again, maybe this wasn’t really news.

First, in the biz, you put bad news out on a Friday, so tipping us off on Thursday via the agency, gave it less importance than I would have expected to come from Yahoo. Then to make matters worse, it seemed to give some details about the plug ins, but then shifted to the Microsoft Interop which from all accounts is still in beta.

So if the beta is over, and the Interop with Microsoft is a Beta, doesn’t that still make the software beta until all the bugs between the two services are ironed out….

Oh, and still no final Mac client..so I guess the beta really isn’t over….Yawn.
