Again I come to all of you with the latest technology advancements and what you can do on your space. Below is all the information that I acquired at Windows Live Development Center. Be sure to read it and visit with them and follow the direction’s below to have a live chat element via Live Messenger available from your “Spaces” site.

Hosting the Windows Live Messenger IM Control
The Windows Live Messenger IM Control enables Web site owners to facilitate instant messaging with visitors to their Web site. This topic shows you how to embed the control directly on a Web page by pasting a block of auto-generated HTML code into your Web page.
To host the Windows Live IM Control
-
Open your Web browser, and navigate to: http://settings.messenger.live.com/applications/WebSettings.aspx.
-
Select the Allow websites to see your Messenger status and send you messages check box and click Save. This will let other users see your Messenger status and send you messages.
-
Under Web Settings, click Create HTML.
-
Select the format for the control (IM window, Button, or Status icon), the size for the control, and the color scheme to use.
-
At the bottom of the page, HTML code is generated. Copy the HTML and paste it into your Web page.
As with any HTML coding that you choose to implement on your “Spaces” site be aware of the fact that anyone can view the source coding and put it onto any site throughout the Internet.
Happy Blogging & Spaces Development
