Kik Messenger Is Available For Free For Windows Phones

imageIf you don’t know what Kik is, it’s an instant messaging solution that’s cross platform and has 4 million users already. So it’s like BBM except it works on Android, iPhone and now Windows Phones. And this version is apparently pretty sweet – nice enough that I got an email from Ramon this morning telling me that it’s “ its reeeeeaaaally nice”. It has live tiles and push notifications that all seem to be working as they should be. And when you think about this, the fact that there’s no ‘multitasking’ is brilliant here. There’s no app eating up your battery, you’re still getting messages and the app is noted as being lightning fast so you get the benefits of real time messaging without any downside, like a dead battery cause of an always connected app. Of course, this is just a Kik messenger so it doesn’t do other IM protocols but Mango will bring Facebook and MSN to supplement this.

Here’s the full description:
