Hello mylotters, you must have tried yahoo messenger. It was the best messenger available on the internet in the past. But with the launch of other messengers like gtalk, skype etc, yahoo messenger users have been decreased at a much faster rate. Do you still think its the best or it has become old?
Well, i still use yahoo messenger but not much as i used earlier. I think, other messengers decreased the popularity of yahoo messenger.

I've also stopped using Yahoo Messenger little by little it's becoming such a pain lately. Maybe I just got spoiled like you said with Skype and Gtalk and everything else. Well Yahoo might be a little outdated but I must admit it's at least still a little bit relevant. :)

In the past I didn't use Yahoo Messenger because my friends don't use it. Besides, I don't like Yahoo mail very much. This is why I am not keen on its chatting software, too. Today most of the time I like to use MSN. If I want to make a call, then I will choose Skype. If I want to transfer a file online, then I prefer to use QQ.
I love China

I use to use Yahoo Messenger. It has probably been 5 years now since I've used it though. I have noticed that you can still receive messages from "Yahoo Messenger" in your Yahoo email though. I've had some people IM me that way. I don't really chat much anymore, so I don't have a need for any messengers on my computer.

I have yahoo messinger and msn messinger. I use yahoo most of the time. I realy have not used my IM app in a long time, jsut only when frineds show up on line. I do not have sype or the other apps you talk about but I would say that they seem to be more popular and out doing the messiger platforms. since I have not IM in a while I realy can't say too much about this.

Yes, I still use yahoo messenger but not that much. I can chat now with my friends in facebook so I don't always use yahoo messenger unlike before.

Yes, still very much active among my contacts. I used to work in an office where everyone was required to have a YM account, yup, with consent from the bosses. Instead of talking face-to-face or using local calls - questions, follow-ups, gossip, arguments...were communicated using YM.

I used Yahoo Messenger in the past, albeit not that often (I only had a couple of people on my contact list, actually). Nowadays I don't use it at all, I've stuck to MSN Messenger and I've also started using Skype (because it works much, much better than MSN when it comes to having webcam conversations, in my opinion).
