| An easy to use
Instant Message program is AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). It allows you to
have conversations with people who are also online, in real time, one on
one, in a chat room, all across the globe. All you have to do is type
what you would like to say. With this program you can keep track of your
friends and even organize them into different groups. This way you can
stay in touch with friends, family, and even coworkers. When you get a message from a friend, the program will open a window, above all windows, in the middle of your desktop. For every line that someone types, it will go above all other windows on the screen. It is harder to talk to more then one person at a time, so being messaged by thousands of people, it is almost impossible to reply to just one person. E-mail is a lot easier to work with under these circumstances. AIM is a great program to use if you have a few friends that you would like to keep in touch with, but if you know lots of people that who are talkative, AIM may not be the program to use to talk through your computer. |
