MSN was the best ever when no one really knew how else to communicate over the interewebs, I didn't have animated word art for every letter, but some were pretty cool, and like nudging people if they didn't answer or sending the "knock" emoticon :lol:

This. So much.

I used to have my settings so that it would save my chats to a text document and a few months ago I was looking through all my old files (I have many 1000's cos I'm weird) and came across all the conversations I had as a 10 year old... Was great.

Oh yeah nudging I remember that. And the overly long PM's people had...

Omg im feeling so nostalgic rn, I wish I remember my conversations with people but they were pretty terrible to say the least, and like judging people to what music they listened to because it showed as their status on MSN :lol:

Runescape, Breaking Bad, Lost, Lehman Collapse, MSN, Limewire, Wall-E, Iron Man, The Dark Knight, Tropic Thunder, Wanted, Obama Election, Usain Bolt, Large Hadron Collider, GTA IV, Dead Space, The Force Unleashed and more.

2008 was a good year to be alive.
Nah because I was 16 back then with the worst haircut ever. It was also the year I got brainwashed by the internet and lived for bebo, MSN etc. Until then I never knew how easy it was to spend a full day in front of a screen pretty much doing nothing.
