As a former MSN Messenger user, I'm pouring one out for the venerable service. The last bastion for the chat service was China and is finally being replaced there by Skype at the end of October.
A number of Chinese Windows Live users received emails from Microsoft on Thursday, Chinese newspapers reported, informing them of the planned closure. The emails told users they would get free Skype credit when they migrated over to the new service, the newspaper said.
