windows live messenger and "nicknames"

alcxxk [Edit] [Delete] 17:28, 27 July '06

anyone noticed the "add nickname" feature on msn? it means you can choose what your contacts are called as far as youre concerned.

its helpful is you have a million "matt"s on your list, but as far as i can tell, its permanent in that you cant swap back to seeing people's wacky sign in names and questions and statements and references, which were a nice conversation starter and a good way of getting information some times.

so does anyone know how to swap back, or have any other thoughts to share with the class?
