I still use msn as my main source for IM (other than texting). But I do notice the number of people online have been reduced.

im kinda surprised ppl use msn at all or really instant msg much at all these days.
its all about social networking and mobile msging lately.
i stopped using msn a while ago and havent missed it... even back then my contact list was all idlers

I dunno bout you guys but if I can, I rather do stuff on my pc than on my phone. Bigger screen, easier to type, easier to navigate and handle many tasks at once, etc.

This makes chatting with friends easier especially if I want to share links and stuff with them.

And as an iPhone user, if you were to ask for someone's chat id, what can you ask them? Not everyone uses an iPhone and even if they do, they may not be using Whatsapp or the same IM app you are. MSN just seems like the logical choice to ask for.

I've tried it for a couple weeks. Got fed up with all the bugs and removed it and downgraded. Windows updates asks if I wanna update my system and it includes the Windows Essentials 2011 but you can just hide that specific update so your system will never ask you for it again.

I'm using the new msn and I'm getting used to it i guess. But the only thing annoying me still is that every time I link someone a youtube video or a picture it does this video or picture sharing bullshit. Is there any way I can get rid of it?

download a-patch and tweak msn to your liking. Best part of it is removing all the annoying ads

Meh. I don't really care that they now use the hotmail name for your contact. I never use hotmail for anything anyways.

how about a phone number?:hotbaby:
