- wingerlang 10y ago> email style messages Care to elaborate? I'm having trouble picturing what you mean. Long form with styling?
- the_other 10y agoThe "find random chat partner" feature was so addictive!
- ashark 10y agoStrongly agree. It's still unsurpassed. And it worked well on systems with 64mb of RAM (maybe even less) without stomping all over the rest of the programs you were running. Seems like no-one can even "Hello World" a desktop app these days without a 100mb download and requiring several hundred MB of memory all to itself.
