Microsoft Live Messenger Discontinued

Microsoft on Wednesday announced that its instant messaging service Messenger will be officially shut down on March 15, reminding users to move to Skype, the real-time Internet communication service it bought in 2011.

In an email to users titled "Important info about your Messenger account," Microsoft said Messenger's more than 100 million users can migrate to Skype by signing in with their Microsoft accounts and enjoy features like instant messaging, video calling on cell phones and screen sharing.

Microsoft acquired the VoIP (voice over Internet Protocol) service Skype in May 2011 for 8.5 billion U.S. dollars and planned to gradually merge it into its every product, like Xbox and Windows Phone.

Last November, the software giant announced it will move Messenger's users to Skype in the first quarter of 2013 with the exception of Chinese mainland where Messenger will continue to be available.

Microsoft's Messenger service is often referred as "MSN" as it was first launched as "MSN messenger" in 1999.

In June 2009, on the 10th anniversary of Messenger's release, Microsoft said the service attracted over 330 million active users each month worldwide.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
