Building an MSN web messenger?

Hi,

just a quick question, I was going to ask, what does it take to build an online mesenger.

I am already half way thought of finashing my messenger.

do i need permissions?

Many thanks.

 

what kind of messenger are you planning.

 

A host that supports java, not sure what else but good luck.

 

A web messenger.

 

wow when you're done please give us a link i think that you need a lot of knowledge to build an web messenger! good luck!

 

Many thanks.

It's to help me friends out, I need to inrpove my skills.

 

Microsoft has a tutorial that allows you to create your own web messenger with VB.NET.

What language are you using?

 

I think what he means is web based, like ebuddy.com

 

I want to use PHP. for web performacnce.

Yes.

 

are you talking about an ajax based messenger ?

 

Anything would do I jsut want an Online Messenger.

 

something like meebo would be good but than meebo would be your competition

 

I dont care about compertition, I just want a script like it .

 

Any more help?

 

Help with what exactly? You claim that you are almost done with building it. What do you need?

 

yes, but do i need lisences from MS to do this?

 

Depends on what you need.

If you are using the actual MSN messenger service, then probably so.

Otherwise, I do not believe that there is a patent that says you have to have a license to make a web messenger.

 

why would you need permission ? and by the way ... the idea is good, it could be serious money man...but you will be assimilated by MSN.

I think they will be lanching their own online web messenger.
Try your luck and let us test the final version of it.

 

Why don't you just buy a script somewhere?

 

The what is the adcivement of that?
