What is Instant Messaging?
Instant Messaging is a free service and it’s a great way to get in touch inexpensively with anyone, no matter where they are. It works in real time, so it’s pretty much a cross between an email and a phone call.
Why is it so popular?
Instant Messaging allows you to keep a list of people you wish to interact with and you can see whether they’re online or not. You can send messages to any of the people on your list, and when they’ve annoyed you, you can stop them from interacting with you with just a few clicks of your mouse.
