Google Hangouts   Please Note:  Version 1 of this app was named "Hangouts," so if you download and install version 2, it is named "Google Hangouts." If you're upgrading from 1.x, please switch your theme to "Google Hangouts" after installing 2.0 or later. It would probably also be a good idea to delete the old version from the Xtras Manager, or by removing Hangouts.AdiumMessageStyle from...

thinking about msn and how chat apps now are way more boring. I loved my iconic orange comic sans font.

Yall remember NUDGING and the sound effects you can randomly haunt people with in the middle of the conversation 

In this era of standardization it’s hard to even remember a time where we could customize our profiles down to how the cursor appeared!

Whoa. Was about to write yall living in 3008 but realized we are not talking about the future we are talking about the past and some alternate future that we could have right now but for some reason don’t???????????

We need passive aggressive status messages back ASAP

Yup!

I also remember using a IRC client called ‘PC hacking script’ and it had an option to remotely open people’s cd-rom slot. 😅

what i miss the most about it is how you could chose WHEN you would be online. i know discord is kinda like it, but it became something else entirely and it just not the same

Conversations via the chat apps of the past had more intentionality. You'd literally sit at the computer and have long, focused conversations with people. At least more focus than with phones, whatsapp and  social media.

I got blacklisted in 4th grade for putting a curse word in my AIM personal profile
