I second this one.

It's basically an AIM/MSN messenger simulator, all the way down to band lyrics in your friends bio. Nostalgia overload. If you grew up on internet chat rooms in the early 2000's there's something here for you. Especially if you sometimes reminisce on times gone by or online friends you haven't seen in years.

It was also worth it to drop $5 on the sequel. There's a lot of gems to be found, including a fake version of YouTube with the classic interface and old viral videos.
