"Don't Snapchat, it's Just for Fun" just doesn't quite have the same ring to it.


Hmm:

Don't Tweet, it's just...
Don't SkyPE, it's just...
Don't Facebook, it's just...
Don't Instagram, it's just...
Don't What'sApp, it's just...

Don't text, it's just...
Don't AIM/MSN/ICQ/Yahoo, it's just...
Don't respond on +1.

Other services are available. Smile

Amazing to think how communications have changed since 2002, these days we think nothing of phoning up Aunty Alice in New Zealand over SkyPE and be able to actually see and speak to her in person over nearly any speed broadband connection, whereas back then you needed a second mortgage to do the same thing and you could only hear her, not see her.

Strangely I think that RI:SE Mk I that followed seems more dated for their use of individual email address that were pushed to their blackberry devices. Possibly because it was quite a modern programme at the time.

Credit to RI:SE though that although it was completely the wrong show to follow The Big Breakfast I'd say Daybreak Mk I and GMB definately have influences from the first version of RI:SE.

Anyway, C4 need to get a move on with the 25th anniversary revival in the autumn!

Don't SkyPE, it's just...

... SkyPE ....

Forgive my ignorance, and taking this slightly off topic - but why have you capitalised the last two letters?

Might have been a mistyping?

Hm, I could swear at some point Skype was styled as SkyPE or maybe I've got it mixed up with something else.

Anyway so I got the Skype styling wrong - I'm sorry I'm not perfect.

I'm sorry you've been made to feel guilty for an innocent mistake.

If I'm perfectly honest, I don't really care Smile You don't stay on a web forum for nearly sixteen years and expect to live in total harmony with everybody all the time.

Thus: SkyPE, SKYPE, SkYpE, sKyPe... there that'll ruffle a few feathers. #rebel Very Happy

I think I'm the real loser here: my Sky Sports joke deserved a much better response. Crying or Very sad
