***Chat App being deleted!!!

[Tallguy8233]

Yahoo messenger is being deleted July 17 this year. What are people going to use instead? I have always preferred KIK anyway but a few still wanted to make contact through yahoo. Just curious.

I'm not a big fan of Kik, for whatever reason. It just never really resonated with me. I've occasionally used Google Hangouts so maybe I'll look into that. Yahoo is recommending a new product called Squirrel, but it's in beta and you need to request an invite. One of my side jobs is beta testing software, so I'm not really crazy about beta testing for free. I'm so picky, I know!

Endgadget article about it, which also gives links in case you want to save your chat history:

I'd like to know how squirrel works.. Kik is getting on my nerves and ever since I reinstalled it I seem to get lots of spam texts and international calls to my phone. Very odd..

Google hangouts is what I use most.
