My very first instant messaging service i ever used was...
Vote
Then the new generation of instant messaging apps popped up with Facebook Messenger, SC, Discord and even people just texting on their phones. Back in the 00's, AIM was the most preferred app on Gamefaqs followed by ICQ But which instant messaging service was your very first? https://i.imgur.com/FBOS9ji.jpg https://i.imgur.com/hJNwpVO.jpg https://i.imgur.com/bdWM5gg.jpg https://i.imgur.com/SLl4gzi.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8V8riIF.png https://i.imgur.com/Rt6tD6N.png https://i.imgur.com/43084Ji.png https://i.imgur.com/HhMMpC3.jpg https://i.imgur.com/k5VAYfo.png --- The Users have Spoken.

I used AIM from like 2003 up until the day Verizon murdered it.
I loved AIM, it was way better than the "replacements" like FB Messenger or Discord. I've felt "disconnected" ever since it went away, the online friends I had on it all scattered to different platforms and mostly lost touch with them. One of the best things about AIM was how little of a resource hog it was (opposite of Skype, for sure!). Numerous times, I had "no internet" with nothing else accessible and yet was still connected on AIM, IM'ing w/ my tech savvy friends on steps to try and repair my connection. If you had even the tiniest bit of a signal, you could connect to AIM. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I think probably AIM in either the late 90s or early 2000s, but I can't really remember. I'm not sure I really used anything after it closed up until I got into using FB's messenger.

Yep, ICQ (UH-OH!) I still remember my number and password ._.
Spent countless overnight hours chatting it up until my dad had to take the PC away.. then it was off to a net cafe in the city once a week where I could chat til about midnight when the last train would roll by I got on Yahoo, but mostly to play games, then tried AIM because that's what my now wife was using back then --- Not changing my sig until Nintendo announces the Switch XL 1/12/2017 ...

AIM back in 97-98. Honestly I never liked using IM even back then, so I probably had a handful of people on my buddy list, then got rid of it when I switched computers.

AOL which was not the same thing as AIM. AOL had an instant messaging tool that was built into AOL itself. They didnt provide the standalone AIM until later.

I guess it would be AIM. Actually, the first one I used, I had to log into my AOL account to get online, then open the IM feature. AIM came out a few years later.

MSN. It was very popular in grade 8/9/10, and that was prior to it going to Windows Live. I had AIM a couple of years after MSN, to talk to a couple of PotDers.

I barely used it anyway. fishy071 posted... I guess it would be AIM. Actually, the first one I used, I had to log into my AOL account to get online, then open the IM feature. AIM came out a few years later. Yep. That's where I started with it too.

AOL's messenger . Not AIM which was later separated and usable without needing AOL. The actual AOL network. My family subbed to AOL I think in like 96 to 98 or something like that. But you could only talk to other AOL users. AOL was kinda cool it had message boards similar to gamefaqs. Also chat rooms. Lots of different different communities. The idea of AOL is obsolete now but it was cool back then
