puzzlement over aim

it's absolutely incredible...i've just discovered that i have logs of every single conversation i've had on aim since march 2003 or so. weirdness! now i'm re-reading stuff and being very amused. how does something like this happen, though? i don't actually save my convos...odd.

I'm pretty sure AIM itself doesn't log conversations automatically, but if you have DeadAIM installed then it logs by default. If you don't, then I dunno.

I could have sworn that sometime last year when I was doing a comm research project on AIM conversations you mentioned you had DeadAIM and it automatically saved conversations. Maybe that was someone else. Or maybe you told me you had DeadAIM and when I looked it up online I found out it logged conversations.

Don't mind me, I'm still sleep-deprived.
