Can someone who has MSN or MSN Instant Messaging check out the screenname / user name:
ravenabaroa (all one word)
SOMEONE using this screenname has been logging onto the Instant Messenger services, via a "mobile device." Further, if you are at all familiar with these services, one feature some offer is the ability to associate a "buddy icon" with your screenname. For example, if I were a huge NY Yankees fan (NOT!), I might have chosen to use a Yankess logo as my icon. The icon would be visible to those with whom you are chatting, and to people with access to your particular service, ie., AOL, MSN, whatever, in their online directories.
Stay with me here... lol
SO, this "ravenabaroa," which presumably is THE Raven Abaroa we reference here, but, I suppose COULD be someone else... well, this person does indeed have a "buddy icon" associated with his screenname...and the icon is? Soccer balls! Coincidence? Doubtful I think...
I know there are various services, AOL, MSN, Earthlink, etc., BUT, unless I'm wrong, I THINK they all link together with certain capabilities anyway. For example, if I was used AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) and someone else used MSN Instant Messenger, we would both show up on one another's list of "buddies" (assuming we knew each other's screenname, and had added one another to our "buddylist").....
Now, all of that said (and I hope it was at least kind of clear??), my GUESS would be that Raven uses MSN, at least MSN messenger, as evidenced by his contact information on his blog, "futbalrguy (MSN)"
Thus, if someone has membership access to MSN, doing some searching on their online directory, messenger service, etc., would be helpful.
It might also be helpful in doing those searches to seach for Janet's name as well. We've HEARD that she was "messenging" that evening. Does this mean via IM? Who knows. Is it possible that Raven was "messenging" that evening as well? Who knows. As someone suggested to me as well, with someone with so many aliases, user names, etc., it might very well be helpful to search on them ALL (painful and tireless, I know...).... I'm plugging away at it myself.
But, we DO know that Raven loves his handheld/PDA, whatever you want to call it. And NOW we know, that he has the ability to connect to the internet with his handheld (mobile device)....
And, one last thing - once again it just RESONATES with me:
WHY DID LE NOT TAKE HIS PDA, JUST THE CHARGER???? (ok, so maybe it wasn't there, or whatever. BUT, hello, two + two here, if there's a CHARGER, then it stands to reason that there MUST be a PDA!!
