]]> Comment on What Ever Happened to Instant Messaging? by yeahforbes http://run-around.com/ra/?p=9418&cpage=1#comment-33131 yeahforbes Mon, 26 Apr 2010 07:43:12 +0000 http://run-around.com/ra/?p=9418#comment-33131 I vividly remember the day that I decided to stop using AIM. I was a sophomore in college, sitting in my room watching conversation after conversation pop up with "hey" or "hi," or if they were leet enough, maybe even "sup." Hoping that they had something neat to share, or at least something to share -- or hell, even needed free tech support or whatever other crap I could procrastinate on my assignments with -- I would reply with "what's up?" But every single time, or at least most of the time, the inevitable showed up on my screen: "nm." Great. Just wonderful. Here I am, giving up my precious screen real estate for, well, nothing much. That's what it had come to be. A whole not of nothing. Right then and there, I realized that whenever my phone would ring, or even when a text would come through, never ever was it for nothing; instead, something. Preferring somethings over nothings, I whimsically decided that I was done with AIM. I promptly uninstalled it within mere seconds of signing off, after 98% uptime for the past who-knows-how-many years. I cannot truthfully say that I have never looked back. I must admit that I've signed on perhaps 4 or 5 times since, but for a combined duration of about that many minutes. Just to see if anybody had an alert waiting for me due to not having any other contact info and wondering why I fell off the face of the earth. No such thing came, so that was it. Then Gmail Chat weaseled its way into my life. Leave it to Google to assume you need a new service just because it exists. There are about 4 people that have ever messaged me through it, never for nothing, and always for something. Joey-0 and I have come to use it regularly because a webmail site is one of the few time wasters her boss considers unoffensive. The chat window is disguised very nicely among the email stuff. And there you have it. I vividly remember the day that I decided to stop using AIM.

I just think its so funny that they're deeply and sincerely apologizing about shit that no one could possibly care about. Is anyone really _inconvenienced_ by not receiving a $330 chair for free? just got my cancellation email, which really made the entire thing worth it.
