Looks like google is trying to muscle in on MS's evil empire! :D

But, with the majority of people using MSN, will it catch on do you think?

Plagerism, one word and it means a lot!

Actually it's plagiarism, not plagerism. And altough I don't know which instant messenger was first, I don't think it was windows messenger.

I won't start using it until someone integrates it as a part of some third party multi-network client. And not even then if that client isn't otherwise good.

Yeah! How dare they copy something Microsoft stole from Mirabilis who stole it from Yahoo!

I'm not sure, but I don't think anyone has a patent on IM's. After all, chat rooms are essentially really big IM centers.

If you need an invite PM me, i've got about 50.

Doesn't everyone have about 50? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

This one of the few things where I'll actually stick with Microsoft. MSN is just handier, since everyone already uses it pretty much.
