Ok, I installed AIM and SKYPE. AIM seems to show online on TRF and SKYPE offline? Do you have to do anything special?

if you have a mac you can get the app. www.adium.im for instant messaging with any client, like MSN, GOOGLE, YAHOO, ETC...

Mac only. So sorry pc's. (sorry if this has been talked about already but I'm not reading four pages)

I have a macbook pro but can you insert this mac app into your TRF profile or do you still have to have AIM and SKYPE? I am confused and wonder if it is really worth it!! I thought it would be good if I had some watch questions that other members could answer but now I am thinking this is just a waste of time.

Ah, but mods have unlimited hijacks. It's a perk of the job.

Was this in reference to anything on this thread, Art?

I use mainly MSN Messenger although I have AIM, Skype and Yahoo accounts as well.

Remember the good old days of ICQ?

ICQ was simple and easy to use. That was the last time I used a IM program. The IM programs nowadays just seem too complicated. I don't care about calls or other stuff but just IM.

None. Texting and IM implies that I am going to instantly answer someone. Email on my blackberry is as instant as I want to get. I will respond at my convenience.

I'm not rejecting technology. I'm an IT Director and I have been working in the field since before most people heard of the internet. I just feel that things have gone off the deep end.

I also reject facebook, myspace, blogging and twitter. Now the average schlep has a laptop, webcam, 15 Megabits of bandwidth, too much time and a misguided sense of self-importance. The sad thing is that you can google the words INTERNET, HUMAN, or EARTH, and you will reach some jerk's blog or facebook profile with pictures from his latest kayaking trip or anime' convention. When did everyone get this important and interesting? Clue: They didn't.

The really scary thing is that if you are a parent of a teenager, and you are not a fairly high-level networking professional who has completely locked down your home network, your child has probably exposed themselves on the internet. The good news is so has everyone else.
