The use of these services really helps every individual to have an active account of communication especially to the Oversees Filipino Workers (OFW’s). These services have a lot to offer. Let us now discuss what those things are:
THE STRENGHT AND WEAKNESSES
SKYPE:
Statement from Skype website: Skype is for doing things together, whenever you’re apart. Skype’s text, voice and video make it simple to share experiences with the people that matter to you, wherever they are.
The skype is a one way process to every individual in their daily routines. In skype you can do all things simultaneously, people can make their job done through skype, you can talk through the audio and video interface, you can also send important documents to your boss and could able to have a sort of meeting in skype. This means you can bring your entire ecosystem of workers, partners and customers together to get things done.
Features of SKPYE:
• SkypeOut– You can call a real phone number from Skype. This is not free like Skype to Skype
calls but is cheaper than what the call would normally cost.
• SkypeIn – For people to be able to call your Skype account from a phone, you need a SkypeIn
number to give to them. Receiving calls from phones doesn’t cost you anything but will charge
the caller the same rate as if they were calling a real phone.
• Video calls – You can make video calls for free using Skype. This enables you to see the person
you are talking to and for them to see you too.
• Conference calls – You and 24 other people can engage in a conference call using Skype. This
makes having group discussions with staff that are located in various parts of the world much
easier.
• File Sharing – You can easily send files over Skype to any of your Skype contacts. There are no
size limits for the file, which is a benefit over email restrictions. For security reasons, before the
file transfer can begin, the recipient has to approve the transfer, thus the person has to be online
for the file transfer to take place.
• Instant messaging – In addition to talking with your Skype contacts, you can type messages to
them while you are having a voice conversation or if you cannot talk to them at a particular
moment.
• Text messaging – You can use Skype to send text messages to any cell phone in the world.
The rates vary but are generally cheaper than what a text message usually costs.
• Voicemail – If you want people to be able to leave you voice messages while you are on another
call or offline, you can set up voicemail on Skype for $3/month o
The negative aspect of Skype can be so vulnerabale. Users of free internet phone service exposed to interception, impersonation and surveillance this means that in skype there is tendencies and feasibility of false information, the site of skype can be masquerade by wrong downloading like what happened in china that are not made through a secure connection (to, say,https://skype.com), which means that other sites can falsify as the main site and offer compromised versions of the software.
YAHOO MESSENGER
This messenger service is the most popular among all because I believe yahoo messenger has set their standard in giving true accountability when it comes to entertainment and communication which is the vital and essence of this service.
This services has also a lot to offer, it has also the same with the skype , but what is good in this system is that it serves as an avenue for the single to find their partner, there’s so many registered accounts worldwide in which you can search in any of the country which made very easy just by clicking. Yahoo messenger just like skype can also provide video chatting, voice call, and chat and can also send any important documents. It has connections to facebook and twitter because of course before you will have your account in any of these social networking you must create first your yahoo account and so whatever comments, messages that you will be receiving from this sites can be seen, posted and retrieve from the yahoo messenger account. Another of the most interesting features of Yahoo Messenger is that they can be notified on arrival of a new message in their inbox.
I guess yahoo messenger is a really a good setting that every individual should have an active account, because its not just for personal use but also for business purposes, like making resume, one of the vital information needed is your E-mail address in which important things will then just send to your account.
FEATURES:
include service from PC to PC, PC to Phone and also Phone to PC. Some of the major characteristics of Yahoo Messenger that separate it from the crowd include the facilities like webcam chat, messaging with text, file transfers and chat rooms which have a number of categories. The Yahoo Messenger offers a great deal of services to hook on its users and invite more.
Some of the other interesting features of Yahoo Messenger include IMVironments. These can change the appearance of the instant messaging windows and it can be customized the way you feel like. You can choose from the themed environments that have some of the most popular cartoon faces like Garfield or even Dilbert. The Yahoo Messenger also features address-book integration with the facility of Custom Status Messages. It happens to be the first of its kind to feature the BUZZing facility and introduce a music-status.

The negative aspect of this site is also a form of scam, because you can really create false account by doing so, and so not all information of your friend list are reliable, this can also be an avenue for “modus” and pornography that everyone can experience and could be a victim of this fake circulation especially for minors.
WINDOWS LIVE MESSENGER
This is also a form of messenger service active information and entertainment that a person can enjoy in dealing with, aside from its purpose of conversing or communicating through chatting, voice call, video call and etc. what is interesting in windows live messenger is that it has movie maker that anyone can use through proper downloading on line.
In addition to its basic functionality and general capability as an instant messaging client, the latest version of Windows Live Messenger offers the following features:
Features of Windows live:
Album Viewer
Windows Live Messenger's album viewer is based on Windows Live Photo Gallery and provides users a photo viewing experience for photo albums shared via Windows Live Skydrive and Facebook. The album viewer is interactive and supports full screen and slideshow modes, as well as viewing and uploading comments on Facebook and Windows Live SkyDrive albums..
Appear offline to individuals or categories
Windows Live Messenger allow users to appear offline to particular individual contacts, as well as to an entire category within Windows Live Messenger, while appearing online to other contacts. This is a recent feature of Windows Live Messenger 2011, and is a departure from the previous versions of Windows Live Messenger, where blocking a contact would prevent the "blockee" from sending the user any messages to the "blocker". With the "appear offline to" configuration currently implemented, "hidden from" users can still send "offline messages" to the target.
Social networks integration
Users can connect services such as Facebook, MySpace and LinkedIn using Windows Live Profile, and display their contact's Messenger social updates within the "Full view" of Windows Live Messenger. Users can also post status updates and photos directly to the connected services within Windows Live Messenger. Additionally, Messenger also imports all contacts from the connected services and integrates with Facebook Chat (via theXMPP protocol) for instant messaging support with users on Facebook.
Offline messaging
One can send messages to contacts who are offline; they will receive the messages once they come online. Additionally, a user can start conversations even when his or her status is set to Appear Offline in Windows Live Messenger 2009 or before.
Games and applications
There are various games and applications available in Windows Live Messenger that can be accessed via the conversation window by clicking on the games icon, and challenging your friend or contact to a competition in a game, or inviting them to launch a shared external application.
The negative aspect of windows live has discovered a weakness in Windows Live Messenger, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The weakness is caused due to a format string error in the processing of malformed messages and can be exploited to crash the application.
