Want invites to join the Windows Live Messenger beta test? Thankfully, Microsoft has a recommendation for those who can’t wait for access to the latest bits: pay for an invitation on eBay. Microsoft’s new instant messaging client is in private beta, but users are granted a limited number of invitations for friends and family — similar to the approach Google took with Gmail.
In response, eager Messenger fans have begun to leave their e-mail all over the Web hoping someone grants them an invite.
Windows Live Messenger, which replaces MSN Messenger, includes features such as offline messages and PC-to-phone calls. File transfers are beefed up through online drop boxes called “Sharing Folders” that actually store the data on a Microsoft server.
