Comment on Should social media be reclassified as a weapon? by Vince Pettit

The impact made by social media can be far more profound than a bullet or bomb. The most powerful weapons control the thoughts of man they don’t kill them.

Comment on Why the unread flag is becoming really important by Dave Nattriss

I agree this is a problem that needs to be solved, and am glad to say Google Chat (sometimes called Google Talk), based on Jabber, has got it down fairly well.

I’m usually signed in to it both through Gmail, using my desktop PC IM client (I use Trillian Pro), and also usually on my Android phone. When someone sends me an IM out of the blue, it shows up on all three clients at once (sometimes at *exactly* the same time!), but once I respond with one of them, the others stop receiving the incoming messages until things go quiet for at least 10 minutes (I think), at which point it assumes you may be away from the client and so all of them get the messages again. Obviously if I instigate the conversation, messages only flow to/from the client that I instigated it with.
