Yahoo! Messenger for the Web is designed to complement the Yahoo! Messenger client. While it supports basic messaging functionality, it does not share all of features that the Yahoo! Messenger client offers.

Please note that Adobe Flash Player is required and can be installed by visiting:

I welcome you to try our new Yahoo! Messenger for the Web by visiting the following address:

http://webmessenger.yahoo.com/

Click the sign In button or 'sign In as Invisible link, then enter your Yahoo! ID and password.

While this doesn't offer all the same features you're used to with Yahoo! Messenger, it will allow you to keep in touch with your contacts. You can find information about new and improved features here:
