Instant Messaging

[Manda_24]

I have both AIM and Yahoo. Everyone at school has AIM so I had to get an account with it so I could get in contact with friends and people from classes, stuff like that. I have quite a few people on it but only talk to probably 4 of them now, they just collected over time, I'll occasionally delete a few of them when I feel like it.
I mainly use AIM now to talk to my roommates, I know it's sad but it beats yelling down the hallway. I also use it to keep in contact with my best friend since he moved away this year for seminary.

I use Yahoo to keep in contact with my family, my little brother will get on some nights and talk to me, he misses me. My family back in Canada also has it and will talk to me sometimes.

I have Google Talk but no one on it, I keep it open for the email notification.

A friend talked me into downloading Trillian once, I didn't really like it just because I was so used to using AIM and I guess I don't like change. Another friend, the one that's in seminary now put GAIM on my computer once when he was over, he did a lot of stuff to my computer. It's still on here and I've opened it a couple of time to use it but I don't quite like it either for some reason.

I use the MSN Messenger. I like it better than Yahoo.

Sorry I was the one that started posting the usernames. I forgot about that rule thanks for reminding me.

Sweet- Skype is just another messenger that you can voice chat with.

 

[sweetlambofgod]

u can do voice chat with MSN too

I have MSN, Yahoo, and AIM screen names, but mostly use Trillian to combine them all. I do actually have the windows live messenger and yahoo messenger programs too, but I prefer Trillian just so I don't need 3 different messengers open at once.

 

[sweetlambofgod]

i dont like trillian cuz you cna't use webcams or mics

 

[okiemommy26]

Never heard of trillian.

I use MSN Messenger, AOL, Google talk and Skype. Never used the Skype me option though.

I use MSN messenger and AOL the most and have Trillian installed only on one of my computers.

At one place where I worked, all of us communicated via AIM. Of course since I was the rebel who ran linux, I used Gaim. I used to talk to tons of people. I was one of the first people on ICQ back in '96. I no longer use ICQ anymore, but I did have quite a few friends on it and spent many a late night chatting it up with Australians. I have names with AIM and Yahoo, but it's a waste of time for me to use them. None of my friends on there talk to me anymore. But if anyone here wants them, just PM me, like the rules say.

I use msn and it is pretty much the only way I stay in touch with many of my friends. I'd be lost without it!
