We have to deal with many people around us daily, but connecting to people over the internet is another aspect of dealing. There are many ways to be connected to people from across the world over the internet. These include Messenger, E-mails, SMS, video conferencing, etc. But the most powerful medium of all of them is messenger since it helps to send instant massages.

Instant massaging was the concept that changed the meaning for the messengers. Communicating through e-mails is quite a different job since one can’t receive e-mail within moments. E-mails are meant to be the official or we can say them technical letters. So E-mails should follow the rules that are applied on any other technical writing, whereas messengers are the source for chatting and communicating instantly.

There are hundreds of messengers that are available in market; most of them are also available over the internet for free download. But the numbers of messengers that are commonly used are no more than five or six. Among these five to six messengers MSN, AOL, Skype, and yahoo are at top.

But the number one messenger that is easily downloadable is yahoo messenger. Yahoo has got a search engine as well; downloading yahoo messenger is way too easy than any other messenger. It can be downloaded within minutes. The main reason that yahoo messenger is at top is its different functions.

It supports video conferencing. User can make a video call to connect to any other person. Send a massage even when the other person is offline, and above all the user interface is so excellently made that user who is using it first time can easily explore every function of it.

These are some qualities that made Yahoo messenger number one messenger of the world.

Note: These conclusions and comparison is a personal point of view.
