MSN For Dummies!

[LancYorkYankee]

Gosh I really hate to sound so prehistoric but anyhow. On another thread, it was sated that not many people in England use AOL but rather MSN. I'm canceling my AOL now that I have broadband.

How do I "get" MSN? Is it merely a free site to gain email access? Do I just put MSN in a google search and I'll get a home page like AOL has?

And some of you guys thought I was smart eh?

i find it a lot easier speaking to peeps on msn than when i used to use aol, aol's crap compared to msn

Oh, so MSN is just the hotmail stuff eh? I already have an account in there but only use it for the church band messages hence my harpmanb@hotmail account. I guess there's more to it then that then eh?

Thanks for the guidance!

Hugs and Kisses!

Brain, your Hotmail account is fine, download the latest MSN messenger from http://imagine-msn.com/messenger/launch/en-GB/

then just add your good old blighty buddies. You can find most of us from our profiles(make a note of the email address we list for MSN then do "Add Buddy"

when we have OK'd you we'll appear when online

Doh!! I wondered what the buddy thing was for. I don't have any!

not the buddy thing on here( I don't know of many that use it here), on MSN your contacts are called buddies.
