Just thought I'd do some research for the types of things dakka users are used to. I didnt add 'forums' to the list as I think that goes without saying

**gretar**

MSN , Skype , Facebook

I also used to use Twitter , IRC and Yahoo messenger ..

yes im a teenager

**Kyley**

Used 'em all except usenet, but I only checked the boxes for the ones I currently use regularly.

I also use the chat box on ustream (40kradio and the NHL FTW) and leave annoying (read:abusive) post-it notes

**Redbeard**

The other I selected is for log-in talker/mud systems.

**warpcrafter**

Dakka and the occasional email.

**Dexterium**

I use gtalk and email for my communication need.

**Owain**

I have Facebook, but hate it. I prefer E-mail for anything legitimate.

**notabot187**

I used to use AIM and, but hated all of the stuff it kept trying to Download, so now it is only Steam.

**ultramarinelord**

MSN, Myspace, Email and VOIP (to talk to my relatives who live far away from me). I am a teenager also.

**medd**

Facebook/Email/Skype/Zune

**oadie**

Checked AIM since I have it, but I rarely bother even logging in. Most of the people I'd bother talking to I see regularly enough anyway. Email mostly for official business (class, work, fraternity), occasionally Facebook for the requisite "hey, long time no see" chatter and link-sharing. Most communication happens in person or over the phone (voice and/or text).

**Krellnus**

Email/MSN/Facebook/Dakka

**Morgrim**

Skype and IRC, with about a dozen message boards and forums of varying usage. Occasional commenting on blog posts, but I wouldn't deem that a form of mutual communication. YIM almost always for moderation purposes on one of the forums; not sure listening to people whining about how they didn't deserve the warn for flaming is communication either.

**deadly chicken**

I use this forum.

and thats it.

god I'm sad.

DC

**gerbrith**

I use meebo, because it lets me be logged in to my MSN, AIM, Yahoo, Facebook and gmail talky thingy all at once without any downloads. So they're all in my browser. So handy. ^^
I never use the AIM part though, and not so much the Yahoo part either. But the rest is good.
I also chat through steam.

**Grunt_For_Christ**

I can't stand social networking like facebook & myspace... I like my emails and chats. It just seems more personal

**Icehawk18**

I use xfire along with a lot of the standards. Lets me talk in-game and keeps track of how many hours I've played different computer games.

**DX3**

Email and BlackBerry Messenger !

**Memory**

I use different things depending on who I'm trying to get a hold of. Some of my friends respond best to AIM, some to Facebook, and some to Ravelry, a social networking site for knitters (it's awesome). If I could have just one thing that hit all of them, that would be damned convenient, but I just know too many folks for that to be likely.

**chromedog**

Email, MSN/Googlechat/etc, facebook, a double handful of gaming fora.

(I'm known as 'Chromedog" on many fora. If you see the name on a car forum, then it isn't me though. I know jack about cars.)

**WarPetrie**

i use email, and aim anyone want to talk? WarPetrie is the name =D

**Tauzor**

... the PUB. yes its not online, but bloody hell a lot more fun

**Tim the Biovore**

I can't believe some of you people are teenagers. Everyone knows teenagers don't do Warhammer and 40k.

**Krellnus**

Lol, what you got against teens?

**WarPetrie**

Yeah i know alot of other guys who play 40k that are in high shcool

**General Stubbs**

I'm a teen. I use MSn and Email. There is also this really wierd thing that I do every now and then, its called getting out of the house AND socializing with people in person. Creepy, huh?

**Morathi's Darkest Sin**

email, facebook (occasionally) and Yahoo Messenger (rarely) not a great deal tbh.

I hang on a fair few forums mind you, part of me wishes I had managed to stay with one username across them all, part of me is really happy I didn't.
