ICQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The long forgotten… …

ICQ also stand for I SEEK YOU!

Was talking to our intern that day on instant messenger. Told her she can go on web messenger to chat with her friend if she is bored in the office. Suddenly, I said ICQ and she was like : "HUH?? Still around??"

Out of curiousity, I went to 'google' for ICQ and aha...I found it..

ICQ is one of the 1st instant messenger software very popular during my time (Ahem,** late 90s) .. This is the very first Instant Messenger I used during late 1990s I think.. Yes, I still remember my UIN ( Universal Internet Number or Unified Identification Number) and password! I still remember the flower (in different status indicating Online, OFFline, Invisible – Appear offline, N/A etc.). Not to forget that ‘Oh Oh’ Alert it give. *Smilez*

I think i've not login for years..at least 3-4 years. The trend now is MSN messenger or Yahoo Messenger. Friends that i still contact since then are mostly on MSN or YM. I logged online to find that other contacts i used to chat with were offline..Does that mean they have not icqing anymore? Why is ICQ forgotten?

Hmmmm..................
