Personal Messages were first introduced in MSN Messenger 7.0 . People use the Personal Messages for various reasons, for example, they use it to tell others where they are at the moment, their current status (busy, don’t disturb, I’m happy)…etc. Some use the “What I’m listening to” feature to display the name of the songs they’re listening to.
For some reason, the messages I use tend to be more "developer oriented". And by developer oriented I mean, only developers can understand them. Some of the messages I used lately were:
1. while(1){work();} (developers that read this will know that I'm loaded with work)
2. while(1){Thread t = new Thread(new workTask()); t.start();}
3. Biztalk.Dispose(); (this was after almost a week trying to configure Biztalk on a production server)
4. happy As New Year(2006); (this is a mix between VB.NET and C#. No one said that messages should be syntactically correct...hehe)
5. State myState = Busy.GetMaxValue();
As you can see, only developers can figure out what these messages really mean.
I guess I have written so much code lately that it became easier for me to write code-like sentence more than normal english sentences :D
