As covered earlier, Microsoft would bring Windows Live Messenger to iPhone. Now, it’s here. The Windows Live Messenger for iPhone has already hit the App Store and is now available for free download.

Like other instant messaging applications, Windows Live Messenger allows you to connect with friends and send instant message with each other. The app also comes with some social features. You can view and comment on your friends’ photos and status updates from Windows Live, Facebook, and MySpace. It also integrates with Flickr, YouTube, and many other social and photo sharing sites, so you can view what your friends are sharing.

Here are the complete lists of features according to the official description:

Chat:
Instant message with your Windows Live Messenger and Y! Messenger contacts on the go so you’re always connected to the people that matter most. You can even receive IM notifications when your app is closed so you never miss a message.

Social:
Windows Live Messenger gives you one place to view the updates your Messenger friends are sharing from social networks like Facebook, Flickr, MySpace and more, helping you cut through the clutter on the go.

Photos:
Upload photos right from your phone to share your favorite moments with the people that matter most. Create albums, add captions, and let your friends and family comment on your photos.

Hotmail:
Access your Hotmail account without leaving the app to read, reply to, and compose emails. Get email notifications within the application so you know when you have new messages.

My first impression of this app is pretty good, though BeejiveIM is still my favorite IM on iPhone. To use Windows Live Messenger, you need to have iPhone OS 3.0 or up. You can download it via this direct iTunes link.
