It allowed you to chat online with random strangers and of course your relatives either.\u00a0Being announced a month ago, yesterday August 5th was expired. There was time in\u00a0December last year, when Yahoo introduced the new Yahoo Messenger, then people thought that the old and new version would be integrated, so that traditional and native users would be able to transform easily. Yahoo also hoped that the service can make a comeback. In recent years, new chat apps from giant Google, Facebook, Whatsapp have\u00a0drawn buzz.<\/p>\n<p>Messenger service has been a battleground for Silicon Valley companies in recent years. Facebook paid $19 billion last year for WhatsApp, which is the popular chat service. Whatsapp was also co-founded by former Yahoo employees. Other counterparts like Snapchat, with its new kind of online communication, have also been a huge hit with users especially teens and young adults.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/yahoo-messenger-1.webp 650w,https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/yahoo-messenger-1-300x169.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 444px) 100vw, 444px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/yahoo-messenger-1.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/yahoo-messenger-1.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/yahoo-messenger-1-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 444px) 100vw, 444px\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21111 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"yahoo messenger\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/p>\n<p>From now on, the users who used the old version and the third-party&#8217;s apps with Yahoo Messenger! supported can not send messages.\u00a0However, Yahoo also starts a new beginning with Yahoo Mesenger brand new version.
