I mean, there are many other ways to reach people now, but IM had its own sense of charm. It’s almost a shame, isn’t it Jeff?

When I'm actually in front of my computer working, I rarely open my facebook and other accounts to get things done faster. So, I just make use of IM and people would just give me a buzz. Although the people on my list who are online had already lessened unlike before. .-= Jeff@Short Sales in Las Vegas´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.lvshortsales.com/hard-times-for-hi-rise-lender.html">Hard times for Hi-Rise lender</a> =-.

Even when ICQ was around, I never made much use of it. I don't use MSN or any of the other means of IM. I reckon time is so precious to me that I don't want to be bothered by anyone. .-= Sire´s last blog ..<a href="http://wassupblog.com/the-new-ftc-guidelines-how-fair-is-it/">The New FTC Guidelines, How Fair Is It?</a> =-.

You know, I've fought Skype, and logically I can't figure out why. And I pop into Twitter & Facebook when I need a break from work during the day, but I should keep my messaging on since I use Meebo for my business websites. Thanks Eren.

It all depends if the people will integrate it into their daily lives or not. It really is about each individual lifestyle. I've found though that talking while working helps to keep the boredom away. I do this on Skype a lot. But my family still hasn't figured out how to use it.

However, I thought people could still do messaging through their cell phones. I have something on mine that I've never used, which is why I thought that. Thanks for your comment, Iceman.

As the social platforms become more and more optimized for mobile phones, SMS via your preferred mobile site will become even popular. Twitter updates via SMS link to Facebook and MySpace and depending on other tools that you might use (Ping.fm is a good example) you can propagate your text updates even further.
