cellphone mate. it's all about texting now. and yeah, facebook and the such have funner (i can also look at your pics later) interactions.Nickolai77 said:When i was a younger teenager i remember [footnote]Christ, saying that makes me feel old...[/footnote] how MSN used to be really popular. It was the bane of teachers and parents who saw it as distracting us from our homework, and I remember spending most of my evenings chatting away on MSN, making friends with people who i wouldn't have normally met, and all in all, having a fun time.
Anyway, then i go off to university. And due to some over-zealous and confusing firewalling on the university internet system, which has royally buggered my laptop over, i couldn't use MSN whilst i was at university. I eventually come back home, and nobody seems to be on MSN anymore.... Typically there is less than half a dozen people online for me now, and all those old friends i used to talk to are no longer online, so i'm losing touch with them.
So, do you often use MSN, or indeed Skype, Yahoo or AIM or whatever? Do you think these instant messaging services are less popular than they used to be? Or are my friends just being anti-social?
Heh, but instant messanger doesn't charge you every time you send a message.AnonymouZero said:cellphone mate. it's all about texting now. and yeah, facebook and the such have funner (i can also look at your pics later) interactions.Nickolai77 said:When i was a younger teenager i remember [footnote]Christ, saying that makes me feel old...[/footnote] how MSN used to be really popular.
