MSN For Dummies!

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?

Brian

Re: MSN For Dummies!

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!

Brian

Re: MSN For Dummies!

got to start programs and select windows messanger its teh same thing and will do the job you want exept it dosnt have all teh annoying bell noises and smileys

then if you liek it download the msn messanger which has all teh annoying bell nooises and stupid smileys


no need to fill in annoying contact cards either

goto hotmail.com and sign up fpr a free email acocunt and use that email for your messanger user ID

edit

i see you already have a hotmail account scrap the last bit then
