But... as expected, none of them were online. No green flower, not even a single one. All the flowers are red in colour. Give me the feeling of.. looking at hibiscus (all red-red niah).. Notice my nice ICQ number?? I like the last 3 figures 188. Better still if it's 168 :PMmmmm... Has everyone abandoned ICQ? I think nowadays most people are using Yahoo Messenger (YM), MSN Messenger, Skype or Google Chat. Those were the days when we used ICQ. Another popular chat programme in the past was mIRC (which I didn't use).
Remembering the nostalgic...
- the cute "oh-ow" sound in ICQ when we received a new message.
- the "tok tok tok" when someone on your contact list go online.
- the voice saying "incoming file transfer" or "incoming chat request" ...
Anyone here still ICQ-ing?

wahahhahahah~ so long din use icq~ but i still remember my number larh` ai si 8 digits one ah my number` hahaha
ICQ!! I think I still have my number somewhere, but the password's totally forgotten. loved the uh-oh sound too, so darn cute! I'm sure none of my old contacts are online now either.
mIRC was a cool one too. carry around a floppy disk with that program and you're all set, just need a PC with Internet connection.
ai si...
how come cannot publish yesterday night & got two comments here liao geh? Angel sure piak me later if she sees this cos she had been waiting & wanna be the first one to comment :P
Angel said "chuppps.. I no icq wan..."
ben,
how come cannot publish yesterday night & yet u can leave comment geh?
Weird weird….
ahaha… mine also 8 digits
dunno the new numbers now how many digits liao :D
may,
I know there are people who can chat in ICQ for hours and hours till 4 or 5 am in the early morning..
But one thing about ICQ is that there will always be “strangers” who is not on the list & dating mengacau or wanting to initiate a chat.
Normally I will just ignore :P
Wooo… I dunno about the mIRC part.
Wah.. can carry around with floppy disc ah :D
angel,
sorry woh, I dunno how come ah ben & may manage to leave comments even though the post is not published :P
weird weird….
Anyway… at least u r not the LTC wan :P

hahahah....
I forgot my icq number lor....I signed up 5 years ago when I was bored and jobless....I went down to a cyber every afternoon just to go online....
Yeah, I like the sound of icq...tried to copy them to msn but doesn't sound the same...
I still do, but my first was mirc
I actually had a remixed song of icq...
I still on my icq everyday...
Now that you mentioned it... seems that my flowers are all red too
yeah blogger going nuts oso
ICQ... the yesteryear's thingy.
Mine only 7 digits, but I have stop using it since ...when?
IRC... wow, 1992-1997 thingy.
I can't remember my ICQ number already.. :(
Speaking of 'tok tok tok'.. I remembered one liuliu story from a friend.. will share it with you someday :)
noticed something different today? hehehe
FF,
YM is definitely more user friendly
I like their cute emoticons too :D
papercrazy,
wah.. going to cyber every afternoon just to go online?
Must be expensive then :P
But it’s a good way to pass time ..
Of coz provided u are free and have NBTD (nothing better to do), hahaha
Errr… actually I found the sound a bit annoying leh ..
That’s why I always tune my speaker to the minimum volume :P
zeroimpact,
o.O
u still on your ICQ everyday?
Wah…
Might be u can add me into your contact list..
then there is a chance that..
once in a blue moon..
u might see a green flower :P
FF,
yeah loh.. especially over the past few days :(
really sot-sot
yenjai,
It’s nice to recall the “good old days” :D
Everyone has now “migrated” to other chat programmes
butt,
can still trace the number if u remember your nickname :P
wah… got liuliu story for toktoktok ah..
remember to tell me the story hoh :)
hope it’s not ghost stories..
nor halloween stories
kakkakak :P
The different thing I noticed today is….
No cute baby profile pict leh..
hahahhaaa can liddat wan ah??
you impersonating as Angel and replying to her at the same time!!?? *pengsan*
I also never use it for years, I found it abit 'mafan' than YM n MSN, loading also slow.
I still have all those passwords somewhere (on Excel)..
and IRC was where one started to learn to piak people with sotong, right? Bloody Bots!!
misti,
can…. Semua pun boleh… everything also can :D
Special request from Angeliu mah yesterday night to chup & post comment on her behalf.
must comply her request :D
(Since she got special satellite knowing that I’m posting something but cannot publish..)
Hhahhaha
I hope she wakes up already by now :)
Kenny,
and not forgetting…lotsa unwanted strangers kacau-ing too… wanting to initiate chat :P
This problem is solved with YM or MSN :D
LB,
Err… I tot u hide the password under the carpet in your living room?
No?
No sotong piak-king yet during the early days..
mIRC is the era where one throw Cotton candies at others..
especially pink coloured candies :D
oops… :P
wah bolehland semua boleh. liddat i can oso talk to myself legitimately. opps
My ICQ oso got 7 numbers oni. But cannot remember already. Been 6 years since i logged on to ICQ. But I have fond memories of those days on ICQ, and the "oh-oh" ( i still say "oh-oh" out of the blue sometimes, weird?).
lol zeroimpact
ya i rememebered once my co band msn and ym..and i stil managed to chat with zeroimpact coz he really still using icq leh!
Hahaha... I no longer ICQ. maybe it's the noise. maybe it's not the hype anymore. Maybe too many things.. no cute emoticons :D

bernard,
Chat on ICQ is very time consuming :D
We can spent hours chatting online without realizing it
Nowadays most of us can’t spend so much time on chatting since we have other commitments :)
winn,
Zeroimpact is really very loyal to ICQ :D Previously u get to know him via ICQ or mIRC ?
velverse,
So many maybe :)
Nowadays ICQ came up with new set of emoticons, which is UGLY (in my humble opinions :P)
I like YM emoticons the most… cute & adorable.. hahahhaha..
angel,
Luckily u heard my call & came to rescue :D
Itu Misti laffing at me leh..
She tot I talking to myself
yin wong ah..
hahhhaa..
