Here at Messenger Stuff we are down with the kids. We know all the "hip" and "cool" things you want to hear about what's going on with the most "gangster" interest ever: MSN/ Windows Live Messenger. Enit.

In all seriousness, the UK has an extremely popular show with teenagers known as Skins. It has also moved its way over to the US and other western countries too, and I'm hoping that post of you would of at least heard about it. Anyway, there is now an interesting, interactive way to get more in-depth coverage of the show as it happens: by using a Messenger bot.

Every Thursday night at 10, whilst Skins goes out on E4, Skins Messenger will bring you closer to the show than you have EVER been before. As you're watching the show, we'll fire out messages to you with loads of extra info on the action taking place on your telly box, as well as cast & crew interviews and the bonus videos you won't see on TV. There will be details of the tracks played as you're watching the show in real time, and between episodes, you can pop back to see a preview of the next episode, access the track listings for the previous show and find links to video diaries and behind the scenes footage. And if you miss Thursday night's episode, Skins Messenger will be live for the Sunday night catch-up. Got it?



Skins starts within the next quarter of an hour within the UK, so I'm pushing the email the promoter sent me some days ago. Just add skinsmessenger@e4.com to Messenger to start using the bot.
