RIP YAHOO MESSENGER




After 20 years of using Yahoo Pager and Messenger, I, like many others, read the message from Yahoo that the service will no longer be supported. I joined many Yahoo groups over the years and they have inspired me to go off and create my own blogs. Without Yahoo I wouldn’t be doing this. It is sad that they have given up on the idea of a decent messenger, since they were one of the originals. This new ‘Squirrel’ service is for GROUP chats and really isn’t for me.

I have many great Yahoo Messenger contacts that I have stayed in touch with over the years. My question to you out there, is this. What is the best (most popular) alternative to YM? I don’t want to use FB or WhatsApp as I use those for personal stuff. I don’t want to have to hand out my phone number either. Can anyone suggest something good?

If you do wish to speak with me privately about any of this or have any queries about me or the blogs, email me here: drdestruct@yahoo.com

  1. Discord is the best alternative. It's a chat group with image hosting capabilities. Very user friendly too =D

  2. Yahoo sabotaged itself years ago, it's been a shadow of it's former self since it changed how Groups work.
