thaibeachlovers Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 or do they all use smartphones now? No particular reason for asking, just curiosity sparked by another thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieH Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 depends where the other one is, I would think they are mostly "line" these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HampiK Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I would say they use is the easiest to be in contact. Of course Line is the app to go in Thailand, but as many of their "customers" probably not use line they use skype, whatsapp and whatever. But your question they use still skype or smartphone now? Maybe they use now Skype on the smartphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 LINE 9x%, WhatsApp for most the rest. Skype very very rare. And that's not only for BGs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaibeachlovers Posted October 9, 2019 Author Share Posted October 9, 2019 Thanks. Back when I lived in Pattaya I would go to the internet café and it would be full of BGs skyping whichever of the BFs was scheduled to talk to. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivinLOS Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Line, FB messenger, and further down the list viber, facetime for the iPhone holders, etc etc.. Skype probably rates way down there with hangouts etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know how stupid that sounds? But true, I have also seen this before, exactly like that ... long time ago. Back in the Internet Cafe/Skype era ... starting with Win95 ????

LivinLOS Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 1 hour ago, RedPill said: yeah, what actually happened to hangouts? I thought G+ was discontinued? Hangouts is my preferred video calling format. But then I have given both parents chromebooks, have my companies set up with all my staff on G-Suite accounts for mail, docs, etc.. Hangouts integrates into android really well, for video, messaging, and outbound calling with credit. If they ever went serious about google voice outside of the USA the entire setup could have been moved to VoIP really well. As it stands I also run VoIP SIP systems so use the SIP features of android in a similar way. The functionality for conferences and virtual meetings, built into google calender, open to guest visitors, etc etc is one of the more powerful and customizable setups, that doesnt require you running your own server side apps or having specialist hardware. In short.. Big fan, but more in a corporate way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomazbodner Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Took me a while to figure out what BG means... And I have no clue what they are using. But when I installed WeChat, I started getting bombarded with offers for massage and more. I guess Chinese tourists are in this season. WeChat deleted.
