Yahoo Messenger
controls
Now you can chat with all of your Yahoo buddies and never leave Paltalk.
You don't even need Yahoo Messenger to be installed on your machine!
note: you need a previously existing account with Yahoo
Paltalk allows you to add Yahoo buddies, and enter into private chats
with them, just as if they were logged into Paltalk. Yahoo buddies will have
the Yahoo 'smiley face' icon displayed to the left
of their names on your 'pal list'.
Paltalk / Yahoo interoperability is kept as safe and secure as possible.
Paltalk only allows simple text messaging and never allows direct connections
between users. This helps to insure safe messaging between both Paltalk users,
and Yahoo users.
