The 8th Sin of Instant Messaging
By Ashish MohtaChanpory discusses Seven Instant Messaging SINS which really makes my mind tick. Points like don’t make yourself available 24/7 and do not expect a response are pretty good.
I would like to add The 8th one
Do Not Add multiple instances of your name:
These days its very common to see people have many accounts and the add all of them to their friends. What next is they get online on all of them using several messenger services. Now They occupy around 3-4 instances and with different name….
So my question is How do I identify you who is who or are you the same ? Please make just one available whichever you feel is important.
Here are his Chanpory’s points detailed discussion which you should see at his post.
- Do not use it
- Do not make yourself available 24/7
- Do not expect a response
- Do not send urgent requests
- Do not be a buddy slut
- Do not broadcast your screen name
- Do not forward chat messages to your phone
