If You Could Write Computer Programs What IM Software Would You Create

It looks like you just searched for "software". Great. You found some results.

Searching the site is a great way to find information.

But it seems like you're trying to suggest that any of the threads you've listed are a perfect drop in replacement for this thread.

OP asked, "If You Could Write Computer Programs What IM Software Would You Create?"

You've included a thread related specifically to software for Mac OS. You've also included one related to software as a service. Those two topics may not be what the OP is looking for.

You've included other threads which may be considered more relevant to the OP's question. But upon closer inspection, some of the threads you've suggested are two years old or older. As needs and trends are always changing in the worlds of software and internet marketing, do you think that old threads are always suitible?

Then there's the problem with resurrecting old threads. Lots of people here don't like that either. They'll bitch and complain about bringing back an old thread just as others will bitch about starting a new thread about a topic previously discussed.

This is a discussion forum, and oftentimes here as in real life people discuss things here more than once. If you pay attention, you'll see that much of what is discussed, especially in the Main forum, has been or is related to something discussed before. It doesn't usually bother people.

Let's look at one of the threads you posted:

That thread was started in 2009 and the thread starter asked:

See, I don't think that answers the OP's (of this thread) question.

It's just not really a big deal if something gets discussed a dozen times in 3 years (and not once a week as you've said).

And if people discuss things that you've seen before, just let it go. Not everyone was here for the first discussion. It's not harming anyone, is it?

I've been reading the WarriorForum for almost ten years and I can tell you that there's not a lot being discussed here that is brand new. But it doesn't bother me.
