Message Wars

$18.45

The messaging wars aren't new—this fight has been raging since 1997. Back then, though, the battle was on desktop PCs between AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) and MSN Messenger. Unlike today's blue-bubble-versus-green-bubble war, users back in the day didn't actually have to pick a side. You could literally launch both apps and run them side-by-side on the same screen. Today? To get that same cross-platform access without friction, you basically have to carry both an iPhone and an Android in your pocket. Not quite as simple as clicking an desktop icon!

Then again, if you've got cash to burn and carry two phones, at least you're mobile. Back in '97, using AIM meant being glued to a heavy desktop tower, chained to your desk. But honestly? There’s still a huge wave of nostalgia that comes with sitting at your computer desk late at night, hearing that door-open sound effect, and chatting with your friends.
