Hook-ups aside, it used to be a great way of talking to friends abroad, as it provided both audio chat and video chat.
Did anyone else try this out during its golden age?

We've gone from really slow speeds and text chat only to fantastic speeds and high-definition video and audio chatting. I look to the future and can't really imagine where we'll be in another 10 or 20 years.

You can test everything and do whatever you want because if you fail there aren't people dependant on your results :P and if you are developing cars, for example, you need to go slow and test everything eh ehSunflogun wrote:I recall the IRC times, I was super happy to be talking to someone in the internet, and now things have evolved to another levels.Isn't it a bit crazy to think how fast we've evolved technologically, especially in the last two decades alone?

You got to at some point just go for stuff. If it's anything like Facebook messenger, then get it! Why not take a shot, it might end up being the best messenger app you've used. If you do end up trying it, let us know how it goes! (:If it's like Facebook messenger I will have to pass it and search for other service like this. On my devices this app/service (Facebook Messenger) is really slow. In my opinion Facebook services and the site in general are not well optimised for old devices with less RAM and with a less powerful CPU thus my computer and mobile devices suffer a lot with the performance when running this app/this site!

In one place they are very popular whereas in other places it is not.It certainly is really interesting! This also happens all the time with video games, especially in today's world. Asian countries tend to play strategy genres (and they are VERY good at them) such as Real Time Strategy or Multiplayer Online Battle Arena, while the Western world tends to go to shooter games for fun.
