Earlier today I was flipping around the computer and I accidentally hit the wrong button on the keyboard. Whatever I did, my AIM buddy list popped open and went to my “offline” buddies. What a disaster this was! Have any of you ever looked at your buddy lists to see how many unnecessary names you have on it? I did – and it was ridiculous!
I started today with some 291 buddies on my list and as of this posting, I’m down to 155. Not only do I have doubles and triples of AIM names for the same person, but as I was going through the list I was deleting names that I KNEW were no longer in use!
So…if you all get a chance you should go ahead and gut that buddy list of yours. I only talk to about 5 or 6 people over IM anyway, so what’s the friggin use of having hundreds of people on the list, right? What? So I can stalk them and see what their away messages are? Weak.
All told, I expect that I’ll drop a few dozen more names and call it a day!
