Just today one of my fellow MSN buddies said to me that the internet was closing, no I mean MSN was closing. Now this may be a problem for alot of people, well I say alot I mean, 500,000,00 roughtly if you can't count, 500 million people who use MSN. Now what Microsoft have said is that they won't close the whole thing compleatly, but all your chats will be monitored 24/7, and you even maybe have to pay a subscription fee!
WHAT! This is out of the question, I know there are pleantly of chat clients around the world, but MSN is the main one, and shutting it down is compleat crap.
And do you know why they are doing this, because all the old fogies at microsuck have recieved soooo many complaints about MSN and the fact its not "child safe"
MSN is closing all its chatrooms in Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and most of Asia from 14 October, and changing the way others are operated globally.
Of course all the people and I quote this, are pritty happy about this, Children's charities welcomed the move as "momentous" and said they saw it as a big step towards protecting young web users, but some have criticised the decision.
Internet service provider Lycos has branded the action as "irresponsible" and fear children will move to other unmoderated chatrooms on the net.
Some have suggested that MSN may have economic reasons for closing down their chatrooms.
Microsoft, or MSN, who cares don't shut this MSN down! Its a waste of perfectly good time and money. If the most heard about chat client in the world shuts down what else is here, I know theres AIM, but thats s***, Skype is ok, but doesn't really have the feel or custom to the chat client as a whole.
