"I'm" in msn..

yoyo.. recently msn is quite famous for the I'm().. but anybody knows what is it? how come suddenly got this I'm... alrite! It is actually a donation movement which currently only applies MSN users in USA. Hope it will comes to other parts of the world soon... hee..

So what the Meaning about I'm()? hmm.. it tells your contacts that you are making a difference, it is short for "i'm making a difference".

So How does it works? If you are in the US and you are IMing with a contact in another country your IM activity will be counted towards the donation.

1. Use Messenger 8.1.


2. Add the i'm emoticon () to your display name by entering the code of the cause you would like to support (hint: I suggest adding it at the end of your name so you still appear in the correct alphabetic order in your contacts list)


3. Send and receive IMs


4. A portion of the advertising revenue generated by your usage of Messenger will be donated to your cause. So the more IMs you send and receive the more money will be donated to your cause.

below are some of the links I found for the donation

American Red Cross -- ready to help, code = *red+u
Boys & Girls Clubs of America -- providing a positive place for kids, code = *bgca
National AIDS Fund -- fighting AIDS, code = *naf
National MS Society -- joining the MS movement, code = *mssoc
ninemillion.org -- helping 9 million refugee kids, code = *9mil
Sierra Club -- exploring and protecting the planet, code = *sierra
StopGlobalWarming.org -- stopping global warming, code = *help
Susan G. Komen for the Cure -- finding the cure, code = *komen
UNICEF -- helping kids survive, code = *unicef

Yeah guys! come on spread the msg across... while u r having fun msn-ing, it's good to do something for the society too, right? hopefully when it spread to the rest of the world and we will be a part of this donation drive too! yeah, come on and use the I'm()! for the society! lolz..
