Yahoo Messenger 9.0 Beta - now Video made easy


Hay Hay Hay, now while chatting you can view the videos, right. The new version of Yahoo messenger 9.0 Beta is the inline video player. It automatically plays videos from services like YouTube and yahoo video in the messenger window at the same time you are chatting.
In old days you gotta go to other websites but now you no longer have to click the link. Yahoo does that all for you by playing it.

If a friend IM’s a video link to you from a site like YouTube or Yahoo! Video, a small video window will automatically appear in your conversation. Just click the play button on the video window to start viewing. The inline video player currently supports videos from Yahoo! Video, YouTube, Google Video, Im.tv, and Veoh.

To share a video from Yahoo! Video or YouTube with a friend, first get the link to the video from the website. On Yahoo! Video, click the “Share” button near the bottom of the video and copy the link in the “Link” box. Or copy the URL from the browser address bar (sample link: http://video.yahoo.com/watch/2202820/6961859).

On YouTube, you can copy and paste the link from the browser address bar, such as http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-jEc5UA_Ew. If you see a YouTube video on another site that you want to share, click the “YouTube” logo button in the lower right corner, then copy the link in the ‘url’ box.

Once you have the link, just paste it into the text box in your IM window and hit Send.
