I used an AIM mod to automatically log conversations with everybody I spoke to. It organized them by folder, with the folders' names being the screennames of people I communicated with. I had over 4 gigabytes of pure text conversations (no images at all). I don't know why I kept them. It would have probably taken years to read all of them, and I never planned on doing that.

They came in handy, though. I caught people lying a number of times, by being able to cite their exact words saying otherwise weeks, or months prior. It was also interesting to see how people's opinions changed about certain things over the years.

About three months ago, I deleted every one of the logs by mistake while I was backing up all of my files onto an external USB harddrive. Almost six years of conversation, gone in an instant. I wasn't upset in the least. I was surprised I wasn't upset. I felt kind of relieved, actually. There was a lot of personal information about myself scattered throughout them to certain people I'd confided in over time, and incriminating evidence against other people I could have easily used to get them into legal trouble if they pissed me off (not an exaggeration).

I wasn't paranoid about people reading the logs or anything, though it would have certainly given the cops a lot to read if I ever had to get my computer searched for whatever reason. It felt kind of refreshing to have everything 'wiped off the record' so to speak.
