Yahoo launches Flex based Messenger – Wow

By scott

So how’s this for enterprise level Flex applications. Yahoo! Messenger launched their beta version of it’s web-based Flex Messenger application today. Currently the beta is only available in select parts of the world, rest of the world check back soon. Congratulations to all involved.

 
The Messenger desktop application already has hundreds of millions of users, not only is this a huge win for Flex but it is a huge win for increasing the penetration rates of Flash Player 9 which are already at 84%.

This is just the beginning, stay tuned to see what else Yahoo! has up their sleeves.

Take that Silverlight ;)
