On a distant planet called Earth, a little boy called surfichris (me) at the age of 15, two years ago today (16th July) made a breakthrough in the way that the MSN Messenger Tab’s work and are shown in MSN Messenger.

I like to believe that I am the one who inspired things like TabServ, and the general customisation of MSN Messenger tabs that are seen around today. (Moddest, yes - but hey?! thats a good thing!).
The tabs were (and still are) stored in an XML format on the Microsoft website, and the set of tabs you received were determined by which conuntry your MSN profile had.
And thats the way the cookie crumbles, errr… thats the way history unfolds!

I’m not sure that was an exceptable comment, but I believe you should be left to rot in the evil forests of temptation, back in Never Ever land, fag. Chris, you got a nice thing going, and it’s a good thought in mind of you inspiring Microsoft.
