    Yep. Gchat was the messaging app of choice for years, till their forced, privacy insensitive "hangouts" transition.https://twitter.com/SwiftOnSecurity/status/736971368533655552 …

        I wanted Gchat to become my primary messaging tool. But hangouts mobile "upgrade" took away ability to be invisible, so I stopped using it.

        I then wanted Twitter DM as my messaging tool. So few features that I couldn't use it. Now I use WhatsApp since that's what everyone uses.

        yahoo wasted http://del.icio.us  too, which should have been a social linksharing competitor to tumblr and facebook

        Very true. Not sure FB gets this at all though, given their forced "community" agenda

        but core mission is unchanged; this vision that translates into every corner of the experience and the majority of users oblige

        but agreed - another case in point is spinning off messenger as a separate app, which is a great "utility" function too

        Adium had some brief, glorious months. Further back, AIM owned simple (large) file transfer and inline images/video.
