    Advantages Advantages Great program

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Unpleasant visitors

    "I LIKE SEX" "HOT VIRGINS ARE MY SCENE" "YOU UNITED SCUM SHOULD BE BRUTALLY MAIMED" Oh dear, dave27 has gone absolutely mental and is trying to offend as many minorities (yes, United fans are still in the minority) as possible in the space of three lines, what's he on? Well, actually it ain't me, and if you've spent even five minutes in the shadowy world of Internet chat forums, you'll doubtless identify the above witty repartee as being fairly typical of the intellectual stimulation and challenge which awaits your pleasure when you log into this sort of program. Like them or not, chat ... more

    Advantages Advantages make new friends

    Disadvantages Disadvantages some large rooms can disappointing

    Yahoo.com has more than just news information etc, it has all the features of a typical web host but the real reason of this opinion is yahoo chat. It offers its own version of MSN, AOL and ICQ, registered Yahoo’ers can download a simple messenger which is very similar to those listed. This allows you to chat one to one instant message style, or add a contact; people with similar interests to yourself can be located easily through the people search. File sharing and voice chat are available too as on other messengers, and the ability to change font styles, colours and emotions are ... more

    Advantages Advantages easy setup

    Disadvantages Disadvantages hard for learners

    Yahoo instant messenger Yahoo messenger is it like the other? The answer to that question is it is similar; icq, msn and yahoo are all the similar instant messengers. Yahoo instant messenger is a good program that has a lot of features that change every so often. The features that yahoo has are: --- Message --- The message symbol is for you to send a message to a friend rather than just clicking on the name u highlight the name then you can click on the message box and the message will bring up a little yahoo instant messenger box where you can send a friend an instant message. --- Chat ... more

    Advantages Advantages Meet new friends

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Getting booted off the system

    We got our computer (second hand) back in April/May of this year and immediately downloaded Yahoo Messenger, a must to use in all Yahoo Chat Rooms. You can log on under as many aliases as you wish. Once logged onto the system there are a number of categories for you to enter ie: Teens, Romance and Relationships, Music etc. You can enter the chat rooms in two different ways. If you have downloaded Yahoo Messenger you can enter via this way (which we found was the easiest) or via the web but you need Java enabled to see the chat window and to see who is in the room with you. Once in you can ... more

    Advantages Advantages Lots of info in one place, good email storage

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Receive lots of spam, website is aimed more at US users.

    Being from the UK signing up with Yahoo.com maybe wasn't the smartest idea I ever had, however it was 12 years ago when I signed up, I was young and naive. I mainly used Yahoo.com for the email account that you get, it's a free account that gives you a lot of storage. It's a webmail service which means that your mailbox is online and as such requires no space on your hard-drive, but you have to be online to access your emails. Setting up the account is easy and you don't need to input too many details to get started. You then get unlimited storage (though I'm sure there would be a limit, as ... more
