Great!

This is a nice book if you have no idea how to use messenger. It is mainly compatible with AIM except for a few things.I got this right before I got my new computer a few months ago and I know how to use the IMessenger programs! Yeah! P.S I didn't get the feeling it was a big ad, of course they have to advertise a little... but It wasn't a big ad. It is for like TEENS I found it in the teens section at Barnes and Noble.
