Hello Ankur,
This was quite easy and I suppose most of the people knew it but can you please tell how to add your gmail account in the Windows 8 messaging?
The Windows 8 messaging currently supports only Microsoft and Facebook accounts.
Windows 8 Messaging app can access exactly two messenger-type services: Microsoft Messenger and Facebook Chat and you can only configure one account of each type.
