public messaging

The total OPPOSITE of private messaging, usually reserved for those of us who cannot or will not use email, messages on social networking sites, or instant (and PRIVATE) messaging programs.
1) I wanted to speak with Kyrie so bad, but didn't know what to say in an email, so I public messaged her on MySpace.

2) I couldn't believe that jackass just public messaged me about the lame ass party he's having. I wish there was a way to block people from writing on my facebook wall...

3) If it wasn't for public messaging, I wouldn't be able to post those cute kittie pictures with the bad grammar anywhere!

message board

A great way to express your opinions, but unlike a chatroom, there are usaully less n00bz, people act more intelligently, and the screen doesn't get flooded with replies like so many chatrooms do. Often called forums.
Urbandictionary.com is a message board, just a VERY slow one.

ghost message

A message, or messages, sent while the recipient is not online.
It is usually intended for the recipient to read when they come online & not necessary or vital to send in an active conversation.
Ghost messages usually are about previously stated information or just something that you would like the recipient to read & not necessarily respond to.
(Please note the timestamps on these examples)
Example 1:
9:20 PM
Sebastian: Do you think you could come tonight?
Anna: Maybe. I don't know... I'll have to ask my mom.
12:00 AM
Anna: I was reading up some things about tickets... It costs 50$ to go there, then we need to consider the amount for food & attractions.
10:15 AM
Sebastian: Oh, right. It closes at 9 too.

Example 2:
3:00 PM
(very random conversation about things)
3:50 PM
Ian: (link to a funny YouTube video)
6:18 PM
Evan: What the hell did you send me.

Example 3:
11:25 AM

Sam: (sends notorious spam)
5:00 PM
Piper: why do you keep ghost messaging me
Sam: ghost messages. (jazz hands)
