IM+ All-In-One Messenger gets updated (v.8) adds Twitter Support!
It’s been a while since we last look at IM+, the all in one instant messenger. IM+ has just been updated to new version 8.0 and now sports a couple of great features we thought we would share. Not only does IM+ 8.0 have support for MSN/Windows Live, Yahoo!, ICQ, AOL, Google Talk, Jabber and MySpace IM but now also supports Facebook chat and Twitter. Basically IM+ is now your complete all in one application for IM on BlackBerry. It may not be the cheapest on the market but it sure packs a heck of a lot of features.

So in case you didn't know RIM has launched Windows Live Messenger for all carriers. Before this only a select amount of networks had access to the service (such as Bell here in Canada). Now that RIM has enabled Windows Live services you will have access to push Hotmail or Live email and Windows Live Messenger (MSN).
