MySpace launched yesterday their new MySpace IM, right after AOL launched their "MySpace rival web community" based on its AIM audience and Microdoft launched their Windows Live Messenger.
What irritates, bothers, annoys and pisses off the most(!) in
this whole IM thing is the lack of interoperability between all the different instant messengers!! I got:
- Windows Messenger (Microsoft's monopoly)
- MSN Messenger
- ICQ (for the free SMS)
- Skype (for the VoIP)
- Yahoo messenger
- AIM (for all my american friends)
- GTalk (comes with my Gmail)
- and now - a new kid on the block - MySpace IM (cause I'm for friends too)
all that just to be able to reach friends...
Making this list makes me think that I might have more IMs on my taskbar than actual friends/buddies/contacts/you-name-it... :-|
