ICQ, One of the Oldest Instant Messengers, Is Shutting Down
ICQ, One of the Oldest Instant Messengers, Is Shutting Down
ICQ will stop working on June 26. It's encouraging users to migrate to a messaging app from Russia-based VK, its parent company.
I stopped using ICQ in the very early 00s. I didn't know anything of it still remained.

#Uh-Oh!
ICQ may be going away but that message sound effect will continue living rent free in my brain until I’m dead.
I've heard that exact sound used on some computers (lottery maybe?) in gas stations in the US. I'm not sure why they picked that exact sound, but it's definitely distinct and recognizable.
