Messenger BETA Exposed!

I absolutely love the new UI for MSN Messenger 8.0 BETA. It's one annoyance (as always) is the advertising along the bottom of the main window. However, as you can see in the screenshots below, this BETA version has a new feature called the "Video Carousel that can (and by default does) replace the advertising. This new feature is basically a set of videos provided from MSN Video, and it is somewhat better than advertising, as sometimes the videos are actually interesting. Now if only this part of the window could be turned into a more generic RSS Feed Reader/Agregator. Or if we could just turn it off altogether :-)









UPDATE: Sorry, the images above are dithered pretty badly. Should have used JPEGs
