BBC iPlayer now with added Windows Live Messenger

So this is really cool news that you soon can use Windows Live Messenger from within iPlayer

“A partnership with Microsoft allows Windows Live Messenger users to log in to their messaging service through BBC iPlayer, enabling them to invite other contacts to watch programmes at the same time and chat live. This is an experimental feature, which will be available in beta later in the Summer; if it proves successful, the BBC plans to extend it to other instant messaging services.”
