The team at uVme head office have been extremely busy working on the new Instant Messenger.

This is what they had to say today, "Our goal is make the implementation of the new web version of the uVme Instant Messenger on the games site as painless as possible and in order to do this our developers have been very busy."

"How busy? Well to put it to context this version of the web IM has had 46 different versions of it built with over 250 bugs tracked and fixed over the last few weeks."

"During this last week of the internal testing that has ramped up and here is just a short list of things we have been working on as well:

Debug window minimized by default - to make it easier to do testing
