Get on MSN? out of power?

Dear All,

With the development of new technologies, new vocabulary has emerged on the horizon... Can you please tell me if the highlighted expressions are correct? I'd also appreciate it if you could help me find similar expressions.

Tom, my phone is out of power and I need to contact Langle as soon as possible. Can you please send him a message and tell him that I am asking him to get on MSN or Google Chat as soon as he wakes up? Thanks a lot.

Thanks folks!
