Hello my favourite messengers are ICQ,SKYPE and MSN then I go on facebook if I want to have some fun with my friends and chat but primary chat program is ICQ for me.I am using ICQ for writing and SKYPE if I want to make a video call.I am not using MSN every day only sometimes.I go on facebook to chat with people who are aren't on my ICQ and have some fun with applications and sharing pictures.I know there are many more chatting programs but it is no point to install for me,because I haven't got no friends on it.At least I can say maylot is another one because I am chatting here and have some friend too.But I would't come here without that fact that they pay me something for chatting:) What are you using?How many programs and internet chats?

I often communicate with my friends by texting them. But, a lot of the time I talk to them using MSN messenger and Skype. I have been using both of them for a long time now, the only thing I do not like about skype is the sound quality. But for video chats it is good. If you are not doing a video chat a lot of the time it will dissconect you from skype and then it glitches up and when you are using text to chat with someone via skype sometimes it says x messages could not be delivered and then it takes like 20 minutes to send it.

There is new Skype out now you know.So all this problems are solved.I think it is SKYPE 4.0 so if you really like Skype and you are not using it only because these problems you can download new version now where are all this problems solved.Better sound better look and better chat.You can try it if you want but I think it is much better than old version.

Hello,i am from China.In China,QQ is the most popular chat program.i always use QQ,it is so nice.i can chat with my friends,listening to the music ,watching movies,i also i play games on it.through the QQ,i made a lot of friends from any places in China.in fact that you can make many friends through the chat programs. you should have some interests ,you can find some people who has the same interests with you.on the internet there are many people telling lies,so don't trust anyone who you don't know easily.be careful on the internet.

Online - Facebook is better for communicating than MySpace. As far as messengers go - I have MSN and Yahoo but I prefer Yahoo. I try to keep up with my friends as much as possible because I live 300 miles away from all of them for the time being.

Yeah, I try to avoid the spam-able friends as much as possible. And I haven't decided what I think of the new layout yet. I guess it's okay but why do they have to keep changing it?

I think the same..I am not on myspace and facebook is one of the best chats(for me the best). I live far away too(in England and I am from Slovakia) so I use facebook and SKYPE every single day.It is not the same like talk with them face to face but better then nothing:)

most of the time, my communication is by phone or email. Once in a while, I will communicate through Yahoo messenger, but not too often. I prefer to hear a person's voice when i am talking to them.

No I have ICQ program but I communicate normal..I am sure:D Where are you from?Because what I know ,ICQ is popular only in eastern Europe.I mean maybe somewhere else too but not in England or America.Do you use Skype as well? I think ICQ is ok but video calls haven't got that good quality.

There are a lot of programs out there that supports almost all kinds of chat systems like Yahoo Messenger, AIM, ICQ, MSN, etc. You can install them and when you get to the main interface it'll show you all your buddies that are online on all chat systems. I don't think they support voice chat like skype or Yahoo Messenger though.

I use MSN messenger the most for talking with family and friends. It is a great way for me to keep in touch with my sister, who I don't get to see as much as I'd like to. I use facebook to keep in touch with other relatives, and myspace for old friends from school and work. I also use my email account to keep in touch with my mom, even though I see her atleast once a week.

I do communicate with my friends mostly at Yuwie, of course with YM from time to time. I have few friends at Myspace, facebook and friendster but so many number of friends at Yuwie. I can't let a day pass without logging on it to check my friends update. I also have mylot for my discussions and earnings. I have to watch out my pay out on here so I have to check on topics am interested to. I have to check on new discussions started by my friends in support to them and as an add on to my earnings.

yuwie is a social networking site that pays as well. Only that the difference is that they pay based on pageviews but you'll gain wonderful friends there. Pageviews up to 10th level referral will be credited to you, am not good in referrals thats why I don't get much number of pageviews but no regrets when it comes to friends. You'll really find good friends there.

Well, mostly on the net - of course, since I stay here all of my free time. :) I use mostly Skype, Facebook ( my favourite) and My Space. Also, I have 12 friends and family to talk free from my Mobile - that's very convenient, as sometimes (not often, though) I get tired of typing. :) http://squidoo.com/BurnFatShapeYourBody

We are the same :D but I hate myspace and I am using ICQ too.But I am using icq only for chat and SKYPE for video calls.Facebook is my favourite site.I am there only about 2 months but I have about 100 friend there and each friend is from my real life.I am trying to communicate here too but I think this is not a real chat only some kind of discussion and maybe 90% of users are here only for money.What do you think?:)

Hello yzedxw. I usually chat with my friends using skype and yahoo messenger. It's even better than calling them on the phone since we get to see one another using webcam...much cheaper too. Thanks. Happy mylotting!

It is really difficult to manage and account and invite every friend in that networking site. Everyone has different set of sites which they like. That's why for me to be in touch with my friends I am on different sites such as yahoo, orkut, facebook, etc. Even in few days mylot will also be one of them (hope)

i usually communivate with my friends by yahoo messanger, or with close friends by cell phone. it's a bit expensive by cell phone but some of them don't have a ps so i can't talk to them by internet. i have some friends abroad and i talk to them through ICQ.

I'm Chinese and my favourite messenger is QQ which was the only chatting program I'm using before I knew mylot,because QQ is the best tool and very popular in China.Nearly every Chinese who would surf on the Internet has a QQ. To some extent,it's very convenient to chat with my friends because we all use QQ.It not only supports message communications but instant voice,video,file transmission and so on.QQ also provide me to play online games with my friends,send E-mails,and I'm raising a QQ pet now,it's a desktop penguin which is very funny. But QQ is only in our language at present.I heard about ICQ and logined one many years ago,but I got no friends on it and my English was not well at that time.Now I can't remember my ICQ number. If you are interested to have a look at QQ you can search the site below.Good luck and happy mylotting! im.qq.com/qq/2009/beta2
