[Amsn-devel] Fwd: SourceForge.net Update: 2009-08-31 Edition
oh hey wow, this is a first in many many years.. we are back in the top 30 of sourceforge's active projects! I remember the time where aMSN was ALWAYS in the top 30.. I think we were even usually in the top 5 or something.. then one day we declined our activity (less commits, less sourceforge forums activity, less tracker updates) and we never came back to the top 30... so I'm proud to say that for the first time in.. humm.. maybe in 5 years ? aMSN is now 22nd most active project on sourceforge! :) KaKaRoTo -- Forwarded message -- From: SourceForge.net Team nore...@sourceforge.net Date: Tue, Sep 1, 2009 at 12:43 AM Subject: SourceForge.net Update: 2009-08-31 Edition [.] == Statistics and Top Projects == Daily SourceForge.net Stats for 27-Aug-2009: 10,283,967 pages served 2,635,396 files downloaded (28.6 TB) 168 new projects approved Top 25 Projects on 31-Aug-2009: [.] 22. aMSN http://sourceforge.net/projects/amsn A very nice MSN compatible messenger application, aMSN Messenger is a multiplatform MSN messenger clone.

Re: [Amsn-devel] aMSN on TV
oook.. so luckily enough, Rima found it online, and so, here it is for the curious : http://3arabtv.com/3arabtv/series/876/7854/Ebn_ElArendoli_ مسلسل_ابن_الأرندلي_-_حلقة_4.html yeah, it's in arabic and you won't understand a thing.. but anyways, go to the end, around the time -5:31 (yeah, minus, since that flash thing shows the time in remaining minutes) and you should see two girls talking in front of the PC.. then they'll talk about aMSN and you can see her loading the website (at -5:11) ... but unfortunately, I misunderstood and we don't see the app itself... so anyways, it goes something like this (I think) : First girl : any news on that guy/boyfriend? Second girl : I don't see him on facebook or messenger First girl : Did he vanish ? Second girl: no, he blocked me from facebook, and on MSN he's always 'appear offline'... First girl: I don't really understand that stuff... Second girl : Now I'm installing a program called A.M.S.N. (and they show the webpage :)) this way, I can know if he's really offline or just appearing offline First girl : And this program will allow you to know that ? Second girl : yeah, this program was specifically programmed for this sort of thing... and.. then she finds him appearing offline and automagically starts a video chat with him over... yahoo messenger... wtf! Anyways, it's a bit less than what I originally thought it was, but it's still awesome to see this kind of free marketing :p I mean, they talked about us and showed our website on a tv show.. that's cool! :) What pisses me off though is that... 1 - aMSN doesn't allow you to see when someone is appearing offline.. 2 - why would they say, it was specifically designed for that kind of stuff... 3 - wtf was that about suddendly starting a yahoo messenger webcam session (which works on a 'appear offline' contact on the MSN network... and which starts streaming audio and video without the user accepting it or anything...) 4 - Did you see the webpage loading? wtf! Is she on 56K modem or what!??! That is just sad... anyways, that's it! However, sorry Tom.. because of the above points, I think we'll have to forget about the As seen on TV ad for the website :p see ya!
