Skype or ICQ? - GoFuckYourself.com

Evil E · 12-09-2007, 04:05 PM

Which one do you use the most? I think everyone should move to Skype. ICQ is pretty old and crappy compared to it.

Violetta · 12-09-2007, 04:08 PM

I havent used skype for ages! Does it have instant text messaging as icq?

PornMogul · 12-09-2007, 04:08 PM

I use icq, aim and yahoo but not skype.

emjay · 12-09-2007, 04:11 PM

prefer skype IM cause:

unlimited contacts
better emoticons
3 way possibility
no annoying soundfiles
free voicecall option

Yes, and Voice/Video Chat and Outdials to regular phone lines with low rates.

AND encryption.

candyflip · 12-09-2007, 04:15 PM

I love the Skype chat setup, but no one uses it. Encryption is a cool benefit none of the others have that I'm aware of.

DVTimes · 12-09-2007, 04:23 PM

in the uk, a mobile firm (3 mobile) has started to sell skpe mobile phones.

You pay £10 per month (about $20), and can phone anyone on skype as much as you want.

I am tepted to get this.

Farang · 12-09-2007, 04:25 PM

skype for chicks, icq for business

jakethedog · 12-09-2007, 05:11 PM

Have a paid subscription for skype which i leave on at all times with my LA number runnign through it ....and run AIM ..ICQ .. MSN ..Yahoo through "Adium" for MAC at all times as well .. in todays world there are so many people running different mediums it is necessary

wyldworx · 12-09-2007, 05:14 PM

i am starting to get into skype alot more.

justFred · 12-09-2007, 05:18 PM

when I get my wireless headset with mic for christmas, I'm going to start using skype again.

ICQ does the job though and no matter what I wouldn't be able to replace it with skype, I'd use both.

for lack of a "both" option, I voted ICQ

dumpfly · 12-09-2007, 05:30 PM

trillian baby... (vote for icq)

VicD · 12-09-2007, 05:33 PM

I voted Skype but it's gonna take a while till more adult webmasters are gonna use it, old habits

_Rush_ · 12-09-2007, 05:35 PM

Skype all the way =)

Fap · 12-09-2007, 05:36 PM

totally different, i use ICQ to chat i use Skype if i want to talk face to face.

Zorgman · 12-09-2007, 05:47 PM

ICQ and Skype. But I only use skype for friends and family. Not biz.

bvds · 12-09-2007, 06:01 PM

Currently I use ICQ, but I am finding it hard to resist Skype!

megatgpdotnet · 12-09-2007, 06:23 PM

ICQ is better..... more time to work ;) less buggers ringing and scaring the shit out of u

Spunky · 12-09-2007, 06:24 PM

ICQ ,it's old but all my contacts use it

GreyWolf · 12-09-2007, 07:37 PM

Skype by far, but still use ICQ.

Like the conferencing system on Skype and spend a few hours a day on that - plus it has the usual "text chat" with the ability to paste complete documents in one hit - unlike ICQ

carol.prime · 12-09-2007, 07:42 PM

icq does it better for me!

Yep. Would be cool to use it if others did.
Just seems no one else uses it.
In terms of the encryption, I am sure governments already broke it.
More of a convince and ease of use.

Kevin Marx · 12-09-2007, 08:55 PM

I use both.. ICQ for business... Skype for personal

GrouchyAdmin · 12-09-2007, 08:56 PM

ICQ. I don't have to listen to drunk or stoned idiots rambling for hours. I can just alt-tab away and do work while they keep themselves amused.

allthough I prefer MSN Messenger..

I like Skype, but no one uses it. All people in the bizz use:
ICQ (USA bizz)
MSN Messenger (europe bizz)

TheLegacy · 12-09-2007, 10:21 PM

I do have both including aim and msn - but find that ICQ is where most of my contacts are

bDok · 12-09-2007, 10:37 PM

i use them all. adium rox.

Scott McD · 12-09-2007, 10:43 PM

I still use ICQ, but it sucks...

Domain Diva · 12-09-2007, 10:44 PM

icq is unreliable,skype is I guess ok...I still cant figure why yahoo is not ok..? maybe its not in style?

It has built in audio..answering machine ,always works ,maybe Im missing the trends

VeriSexy · 12-09-2007, 10:54 PM

futurama · 12-09-2007, 11:18 PM

ePorn · 12-10-2007, 12:50 AM

Both here, but lately more skype.

ep

A.J. Angel · 12-10-2007, 12:54 AM

I only use Icq between it and Skype. I have never used Skype and am not intending to. I already have Yahoo! and MSN as well as AIM messengers and that is too much for me.

CyberHustler · 12-10-2007, 01:03 AM

I use ICQ most but wish everybody would smarten up and switch to skype...

calibra · 12-10-2007, 02:15 AM

Definitely Skype! It has much more to offer than ICQ.

TurboAngel · 12-10-2007, 02:16 AM

ICQ here.

Fap · 12-10-2007, 02:27 AM

I think im the only one who prefers AIM to the rest heh

thricer · 12-10-2007, 02:33 AM

ICQ ofc....

I prefer GTalk, all of above + web based logs .. so you never lose them if your system is crashed or something.

yumma · 12-10-2007, 04:06 AM

skype! ! !

Evil E · 12-13-2007, 11:03 AM

Final Bump. We have about 30% of people on the thread that prefer Skype over ICQ and I feel that about 40-50% use Skype but rather use ICQ because a lot of people still use ICQ.

Lykos · 12-13-2007, 12:29 PM

ICQ is like standard for me,altough i use Skype as well.

WWC-Pajio · 12-13-2007, 12:46 PM

ICQ works fine with me..

Lilit · 12-13-2007, 12:59 PM

I prefer ICQ

Wizzo · 12-13-2007, 01:08 PM

I will totally move to skype if you come over a swap my 1000+ ICQ contacts over to it... Otherwise it will remain the adult webmaster IM of choice...;-))

pixiewillow · 12-13-2007, 01:11 PM
