What did you end up using instead? If anything, that is.

Wait, I'm the only one who still uses it? Can't really say I expected that.

I guess, like most others, I've moved over to Telegram and Discord. Telegram's pretty nice, but I'm not quite so keen on Discord.

I guess so far as Discord goes, as a Skype replacement, I find it absolutely stellar -- but it also seems to be overtaking other things (such as IRC, seemingly) that I don't like it quite so much for.

Part of it's also probably the fact that these older protocols worked on fucking anything and these newer clients are so much more resource-hungry and probably wouldn't play quite as nicely on older systems. Maybe it's not quite that huge of an issue, since a lot of this stuff still probably runs fine on almost anything from the past decade (give or take a few years), but... eh.

(maybe the revival of that old laptop has me thinking about this kind of stuff too)

Well, it's been a few weeks, but AIM is officially gone now. Kind of weird to think about, but I guess I should remove the AIM field from profiles (and maybe even the database) now.

Similarly, it's weird to think that my homepage and some other things still make mention of my screenname, even though I hadn't used AIM in years.

Now think about how weird it is to have seen a copy of Windows Messenger. Not even MSN Messenger, the real one, but the horribly stripped-down one they shipped with some XP versions.

Does Trillian even still exist? Every one of the old protocols it used to support (barring IRC) is dead now, isn't it? Except for ICQ I guess.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
