Now Watching is a handy plugin for Windows Live Messenger that updates your status message to display the video you're currently watching on YouTube, GoogleVideo, or MySpace. To use this feature, ensure you activate the "Show what I'm listening to" option, allowing Now Watching to showcase your video activity instead of music. This plugin is compatible with both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. Simply run Windows Live Messenger and then launch Now Watching. From that point on, any video you watch on YouTube, Dailymotion, or MySpace will automatically appear in your status message. You have the flexibility to display the video URL, the title, or both. Additionally, you can create a custom list of words to exclude from your status updates. Enhance your online presence with Now Watching and share your video interests effortlessly!

This app is literally the best thing ever. I mean, I’m watching shows I never thought I’d like! Who knew I’d fall for rom-coms? Kudos to the team for making my watchlist stress-free. A++!
