The Problem

You just installed Microsoft Vista and you decide it�??s time to open Yahoo messenger and send and instant message to a friend but it won�??t work! This is not only a problem for you, it is a problem for all Yahoo! messenger users. Since one computer uses Vista and the user of the other computer users XP, the messenger does not work. Sadly, there is no updated version out at the present, but there is one in the works, and boy, does it sound amazing!

Problem With Yahoo! Voice

In addition to the messenger not working, other features of the messenger, for example, the voice feature that allows you to have a speaking conversation with another user, also does not work. The reason for this problem is the same as the reason for the chat messenger not working as well.

New Features Of Yahoo! Messenger

Some of the new features of Yahoo! messenger will include new stunning graphics that will correspond with Vistas graphics. You will see amazing new emoticons that really look more like people instead of cartoons. That�??s not a huge improvement but it gets better. In addition, you will also be able to change the look and feel of your messenger to compliment your desktop. This really doesn�??t effect me, but it may bother others who think there messenger �??clashes�?� with there outfits.

For those with interests, the new version will group your friends in your Yahoo interests. This way, you will know all the interests of all the new people you meet allowing you to talk more fluently. this feature will surely improve the conversations of people who are afraid to talk about things that may not be of any interest to the other. Now you can finally discuss the fiscal policy of the United States with that girl you just met seeing that she is grouped in the politics area.

Another great little added feature is one that allows you to add all your contacts from Windows Live to your Yahoo contact list. This will allow you to IM all your friends using one messenger. (I guess this is a way to capitalize on the instant messenger business and drive people away from Windows live�?�but shhh�?�don�??t let them know to your new found knowledge�?�just go with it.)

Finally, the other new features allow you to organize your conversations better through new drag and drop tab features. Also, the new Yahoo! Messenger sidebar tool will allow you to better see who is online and ready to talk.

Although Yahoo! messenger is not ready yet, you can look forward to a new version coming out. This version is better than the one your using now. If you don�??t have Vista and are not considering making the change, you may not have to because I�??m sure Yahoo! will come out with a version for XP users as well.

If you�??ve been in the internet marketing world for some time, then you should know that sending targeted traffic to your website is the lifeblood of your online business. Without targeted traffic and marketing, your business will eventually die. But the main problem today is that most internet advertising isn�??t cheap. Most services require you to pay a lot just to get some decent advertising. This is why it is important to have an understanding of cheap online advertising methods. Discussed in this article are some ways you can get cheap online advertising instantly.

But before we discuss cheap online advertising methods, let�??s discuss some free methods that you can utilize today as well.

The best free online advertising methods from my tests and results involve the use of web 2.0 community sites. Web 2.0 social websites provides a means for you to get highly targeted free traffic instantly without doing very much work. If you have quality content on your site, the network of members within this community will run to hear what you will have to say. This is by far, one outstanding way to get targeted traffic other than cheap online advertising methods.

Now that we got the free advertising part out of the way, let�??s talk about cheap online advertising methods that send high quality visitors to your website. Listed below is a powerful way to get cheap online advertising to your website.

The most legitimate way to get targeted, cheap online advertising to your website is via the Google Adwords content network. In the Google Adwords content network, you can get clicks for as low as 1 to 2 cents per click. The only problem with the Google content network is that it sends you a very low click thru rate. But so many people are blinded by this CTR problem that they refuse to pursue this cheap online advertising method.
