Facebook ruined a good thing MSN Messenger had going. All things come to end I suppose. RIP.

It was inevitable since they acquired Skype.

So many memories.

Is anyone here old enough to remember ICQ?

I still have my ICQ number from the late 90's but haven't logged in in about a decade.

Never going to switch to Skype, there is no point. Everyone I knew used MSN, none of them use Skype now.

The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it; the iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched, when death and despair leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate, but thank the Builder for the trials that shape thee.

Haha, can you still download it? I'd have figured it was long gone.

My SMS notification is the uhoh sound. At work the other day I heard it, checked my phone...nothing. It was the person beside me. I was like 'whaaat the'. Unless there's another app that uses it by default, I'd have never thought someone would go out of their way to change it to that.
