There is a thing I believe called ICQ and I just dont see either of you there. Why is that?

Course if you are too busy with eachother just give us all updates on what you are doing.
 
Rule Britannia, Brit.....

..oh sorry wrong thread.

Now I'm here what is ICQ and how do I get on it? I've seen it mentioned many times but don't know anything about it.
 
ICQ = I Seek You = free instant messenger sorta thing
http://www.icq.com/download/

It came out in Feb, i think, of about 1996 and despite persistent rumors that some big company or another is buying it out (usually the demon AOL), it remains free and widely used, perhaps THE most widely used of the IM's.

Long dl but really easy to use and as reliable as any other IM, more so than some. I've been using it since shortly after it came out, through several new versions, and still think it's the best of them all.

It WAS bought by AOL in a preemptive strike. It is still free, although I don't believe it is the most used IM software. AIM has that honor as far as I remember. (I'm too lazy to go to google to do the research tonight.)

(That would explain why i've never bumped into it since i'm not now and have *never* been an AOL user.)
