We all know him even if it’s the first interview he gives.
Messenger, hi ! Why did you choose talking to us today?
I always wanted to stay low profile about my personal life, when you’re a star like me, you need to protect your family.
However, now I’m gonna be retired, I’m less afraid of being pissed off.
So… We’ll speak a little bit about your career.
You started your career in 1999, is that right?
Yes, that’s it. In the beginning I kept my real name, MSN Messenger. In less than a year, I already had 1 million users.
Ohh yes, I used to to kick *** big time!
So, while we are speaking about LOL, we’ll get back to your well-known interface, which will remind all of us good memories.
So here we see your famous window, you can choose your typography, its color, send pictures.
Yeah, I was so thé man !
And of course, you could define your picture, choose it in a large range of smileys, the well-known emoticons.
Retrospectively, how do you explain this success?
Sorry, because of my age, I can’t stay connected as long as before.
So, you know, reasons of my success are that I’ve been one of the first modern online cupid.
“Do you have MSN?” was one of the first questions you asked.
And I can tell you without boasting about it, that I helped loads of people to hook up with each other.
So, in Augustus 2004, it is 135 million users around the world, and 5.5 million just in France.
Can we speak about a real social phenomenon?
Of course! I had a status for everything.
“Out to lunch” for the one who were forced to get away from the computer to go eat.
“Busy” for those who didn’t want to be annoyed?
What I really liked was the Wizz, to remember someone that the conversation wasn’t over.
It’s true that it is impolite not to answer, so sometimes people get mad.
In short, it was the ROFLMAO period! (cfr rolling-on-the-floor-laughing-my-***-off!)
So today, you decision is made I can imagine! Do you have any regrets?
My time is over, but I will live forever in the memory of each of my users.
What you say is really nice. A few words for Skype, your successor?
I’m sure he will rock taking over from me to extend the Messenger experience!
He’s quiet stuffed from an innovation point of view in order to do it.
And, thanks to him, I can enjoy my new life. A quiet life,
I’ll make some blowout home,
I’ll kick back and relax in my new home cinema, I just finished installing speakers and they kick ***…
I’ll do some sport, to stay a handsome boy that I’m.
So here it is, I want to thank all of you; we had a lot of fun together!
It’s time for me to leave now! Bye!
