I spent the day sorting through and re-reading a few thousand e-mails from 2010, and it was really a blast from the past. What a year it was.
Thanks for an awesome 9 years, and for some great e-mails along the way.

As always, I read all of my e-mail and can be reached with questions/comments/concerns/hate mail/and plain ol' hellos at moot@4chan.org (or on AIM at MOOTCHAT).
tl;dr version of 2010: "SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, and VIRUSES: The Movie"

One thing I like about iOS is the iMessage network.

It's good to know anyone with an Apple device can connect to the same instant messaging network.
>>
so what exactly is good about a messaging service that is not cross-platform?
>>
iMessage is a bush league copy cat of BBM.

>league copy cat of BBM.
.. which is itself very cross-platform.
>>
Fucking longphone is an eyesore.

I never understood what was wrong with SMS....

One thing I like about Android is the Gmail Talk XMPP server.

It's good to know anyone with any device can connect to any XMPP server and chat with anyone on any other XMPP server.

BBM didn't invent it.

>>31673745
It's alright. I thought it was too long too until I owned one myself. Now I think the older generations are too small.
>>
>>31674244
> money
It's like $10 a month for unlimited text, in Canada at least, data prices are absolutely insane.
>>
>>31674244

>Impying BBM didn't perfect it.

iMessage and WhatsApp are complete garbage in comparison. They just don't have the infrastructure in place to do it properly. Also, enjoy your non-encrypted data being sent, anyone can read your messages with basic tools.
>>
>>31674922
Doesn't matter, Blackberry is almost dead. Maybe a year longer until they completely go under. It won't matter who did it better.
>>
>>31675045

>Implying the BB10 platform isn't superior to iOS and Lagdroid in every conceivable way.

Don't count them out just yet.
>>
So... like texting... but platform dependent?
Great software.
Apple has clearly innnovated again.
>>
>texting in 2013
>People pay texts on top of data plans
Could anyone be more retarded?
>>
>>31674922
>Also, enjoy your non-encrypted data being sent, anyone can read your messages with basic tools.

iMessage is encrypted, and so is Whatsapp now. Yes, whatsapp was plain text about a year ago, but it's encrypted now.
>>
You guys are Americans, right? No one could be this stupid, there are like a hundred texting platforms.
>>
>>31674785
Why would you pay for texts anyway? It's like paying for a home line. It made sense five years ago.
>>
>>31675157
Unlimited texting comes with my unlimited data plan. What third world country are you from?
>>
Wow i have this great feature that i can only use if a have a data plan, which in north america will run me a small fortune, and i can only communicate with whores and hipster faggots

SWEET
>>
iMessage is slow as fuck
TL;DR: piece of shit
>>
>>31673745
Galaxy S series screens are an eyesore. Fucking Samsung and their oversaturated AMOLEDs
>>
>>31675285
>>31675258
America is shit at telecommunications. In Europe you can have a data plan plus voice for like 15 euro. If you want anything that actually works here in America you're looking at >50 USD.
You people live in the Dark Ages.
>>
>>31674785
Most plans have unlimited texting
>>
>>31674222
dont be retarded, there's a dozen apps on iOS that allows you to connect to google talk.
>>
>>31675343
still, good luck
>>
>>31675325
I know it is. It is horrible. Internet and 3G are pathetic in most places, even dense urban zones. (>4 Mil)
>>
>>31675307
>fucking every single other manufacturers washed out screens.
Samsung is quickly becoming the leader in screen quality...

If Jorge can catch a big one, why can't you?

The cellphone plans in Canada are highway robbery. $50 a month gets me 200 anytime minutes, 1000 evening and weekend, unlimited text, and 500mb of data, about a year and a half ago when I signed up I also got my HTC Sensation 4G for free. It's really not a good deal.
>>
>>31675418
it just needs better calibration
>>31675454
Then you're retarded, going for plans like those. At least try retentions or go for Wind/Mobilicity
>>
>>31675454
i feel for you

20£ for unlimited text, talk and data.
>>
>>31675478
I'd go for Wind of Mobilicity if they cated to my area. You see, not everyone lives in the city.
>>
All the girls I talk to use text/imessage. I need data and text.

Wind has great deals, but has shit reception.I got my plan during a special and got Unlimited everything for only $29.

But i mean, fucking look at this cell reception. I'm also in the middle of Toronto, which should have full reception.
