Hello,

Do you still have a spare Windows Live Messenger?

I want to trade it with you for:

- A Wallop invite (more info: www.mywallop.com), or

- Two weeks free advertising on profit42.com, or

- The great Palm OS program Beam-It (wich allows you to chat with other, infrared enabled Palm devices, or

- If you want me to offer something else that I didn't put on this list, PM me and I see what I can do!

My e-mail is: [email protected]

Regards,

Jan Schneiders

P.S. So I mean I give you one of the thing mentioned above and you give me a WLM invite.

I got the email from Microsoft today. Its about a week or so after everyone else but I was in the recruitment program. Perhaps this means Australian users are being given a chance as I dont think any got invited last time. Ahh well, filled out the survey and I'll see how it goes. *fingers crossed*

So the whole thing with the Australian invites was true. I knew something weird had happened, as my friend also got an invite :D

seems so. I did the survey and now have newsgroup access, I'm just waiting on confirmation saying I can download. I got MSN 8 via the newsgroup link but cant yet loggin, ill give it a day or 2 and see if it's activated then.

    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
    • I have been using Firefox for years.
    • I'd trust open source stuff on github more then closed source binaries from Microsoft.
