Goodbye MSN!

SO lets face it, MSN's not gonna be all that popular 10 years down the road. So before the communication platform that dramatically increased my typing speed goes the way of friendster, I shall use this post to rant about the types of MSN users I'm sure we all have experienced before.

1.The Spammer

There's one in everyone of us. The dude that just keep's spamming your whole window with emoticons or "lol" and other stuff that don't make sense. Sound familiar?

2. The Slooooooowpoke

You are about to type a reply when you see the message :" xxx is typing". Out of pure courtesy you decide to wait for him/her to finish typing. 5 minutes go past and the other party types 3 words. And it certainly has nothing to do with slow typing.

3. Just Plain Random

You decided to use MSN to decide on details for the next gathering with a couple of friends. You ask: "So, where are we going for lunch" "Yayyyyyy club penguin rocks" At this juncture you ponder as to whether or not to refer your friend to the nearest mental institution, but nothing can cure randomness.

    Might I ask, what in blazes is Friendster?

    Now, what is the purpose of this pots? Pointing out your views of MSN? Perhaps you could elaborate more in this post?

    Yours sincerely,
    J

    P.S. Go read and comment on my dying blog @ jgxq.blogspot.com

  2. Hi J,

    Firstly,Friendster is a social networking site that used to be quite popular, but is now not very popular after the rise of Facebook and Twitter.

    Secondly, this post was supposed to be about my observations of the type of people that use MSN, as well as why the popularity of it is rapidly declining, but for some reason only half of the original post was published. So hang in there while I retype the rest of it.

    Yours Sincerely,

    K.C

  3. Wow, Kevan, it seems your knowledge on msn is really good and your criticism rocks. I figure i could categorize you as msn type 2.
