The question is ARE YOU A FAN OF THE MESSENGER SERVICES?
Of course everyone uses once in a while Yahoo! Messenger or any other instant messenger account, but are you the person who has 40 to 50 contacts in the contact list, who types 10 letters / seconds thanks to countless hours spent on the net or who starts speaking with friends with lol (I have a friend which is driving me crazy with .... - lol? |

Yea since the early 90's (not that my very young self would know..) its been all about chatrooms and chatting. That kinda died out. today, i use AIM and i have a full buddy list. I have to make aliases in order to add more people. so i have like a screename for people i know personally.. people i met through games (like counter-strike).
 MSGing and MUD games pretty much made me type so fast. but im taking computers right now.. and we have a keyboarding section. now i found out that i have "Wrong form" so i have to start from square one (stupid "home row") lol.. if i can type 71 wpm with "wrong form" why should i be forced to type properly if it makes me slower!?

i hate messenger or any other instant messenger program because when i am on the internet i don't like to be bothered by people sending me messages. how am i supposed to concentrate on what i am doing when the stupid thing sends me 10 messages every second?
i have a pretty big msn list... and the ENTIRE list is blocked. i only unblock the ones i want to talk to at the time. when i am done talking to them, i block them again. |

I use Trillian for my yahoo and msn messenger friends. I have a lot of friends online always. I like chatting. As I am moderator of a health related forum (Thalassemia Community Forum) where all the members are not supposed to know the options of using a forum, I have to be online most of the time on messenger for their help. Although it is not mandatory but I think it can help members a lot.

I use MSN and Yahoo messengers. I use MSN more than I use Yahoo. I really see no point of talking to someone online through a instant messenger unless its family or someone you have known for a long period of time. Personally i hate getting IM's from people i dont know. all the messages poeple send seems like a big waste of valuable time. Especially for the person IMing you. i love it when someone IM's me and i tell them constantly im busy and they wont stop until you block them. I used to use AIM but it got boring fast and i dont like AIM. So yeah thats my reply to this topic
