Rep Power: 3  | Graphical IMs
Seems this is the next big thing, maybe - graphical IMs. There's IMVU and even AIM is working their way towards it. What do you guys think? Seems pretty Sim-like to me. Cute, but I wouldn't use it. |

Rep Power: 3 | more graphics? not good for those with dial up. it'd be nice if you had DSL,broadband, or cable hook-up tho  not sure if i'd use it. seems a bit extreme and unecessary. | |

Rep Power: 3 | Yeah, I don't think I'd use it, too. MSN or was it Yahoo, or maybe both, they seem to have been more and more heavy and graphically intense. I wouldn't use it. If the messengers did become bloated, I'd download a small client like Trillian. | |

Rep Power: 3 | I don't need it. I use yahoo and the graphics are indeed intense but I can do without it. AIM works just as good, if not better. | |

Rep Power: 0 | I must be one of those kids at heart then. I think it looks like a lot of fun to play with. Of course I'm also addicted to The Sims so maybe that has a little something to do with it. | |

Rep Power: 3 | yeah in my opinion it's a mmo where people don't kill stuff but just live together. It doesn't seemt hat bad and if i am bored i might use it. Especially if everyone i know uses it. | |

Rep Power: 3 | I wouldn't call those "games" actually, since there really isn't an objective (just a community of people). It is more like a virtual chat room. | |

Rep Power: 3 | I'm not into those graphical chat programs, I think they are aimed at a much younger crowd. | |
