its an instant messenger where you can chat live with people

tammybear · 29/10/2004 11:33

sort of like a mini chat room where you can choose who's on it, like your friends

golds · 29/10/2004 11:34

so glad you asked, I was feeling a little thick

namealtered · 29/10/2004 11:46

but where does it happen (she says foolishly) - on some kind of website?

Oh thanks for asking - I always wondered that!

tammybear · 29/10/2004 11:49

you download it from the msn website and it's stored onto your computer and you just sign in to it. it also tells you how many emails you have in your email account, ill find the link for you

MrsDoolittle · 29/10/2004 11:49

You need to download the software onto your computer. It's a microsoft product and it comes free. See if i can show you...

tammybear · 29/10/2004 11:50

this should be it

PuffTheMagicDragon · 29/10/2004 11:51

I downloaded it last night, but feel like "Billy No Mates" cos I don't know anyone else who's got it so its just sat there!

Asked dh if I could test it with him, but he said he doesn't use it (far too busy apparently!!!)

MadameButterfly · 29/10/2004 11:51

You can download it at msn.com

MrsDoolittle · 29/10/2004 11:52

my email address is sum41sbombette @ hotmail . com (but without the spaces in between) You click on add contacts and just add the email address in. Im not actually on msn at the moment though so wont be able to talk to anyone but usually on in the evening to chat

MrsDoolittle · 29/10/2004 11:56

You'll pick people up as you go along - Everyone uses it
My friend lives in Seattle, we were on it for an hour last night. Probably why my eyes ache today

PuffTheMagicDragon · 29/10/2004 11:58

Oooh, thanks folks.

I've just been tranported back to the age of 7, standing in the playground of my new school where I knew no-one. Then suddenly, someone grabbed my hand and said "come and play with us" .

MUST go and do some work now, but will be back later to talk to new mates on msn .

MrsDoolittle · 29/10/2004 12:01

PuffTheMagicDragon · 29/10/2004 12:05

Will be back on my computer later to discover the wonders of msn .

MrsDoolittle · 29/10/2004 12:33

MrsDoolittle · 29/10/2004 13:01

PuffTheMagicDragon · 29/10/2004 14:16

Have added some of your addresses to my msn thing (can't seem to do yours tammybear).

If I seem rude and am not speaking to you its cos I don't know what I'm doing - will have more time tonight to work it out!
