Sinister: B&S Chatter

Hello everyone:)
I found this web service/site called ICQ (short for "I seek you") and I
think it would be really cool for all of us Sinistereens.  
What ICQ does is it lets you chat with the people you e-mail. Basically,
if e-mail is equivelent to "snail mail", then ICQ is like being on the
telephone!  
Example:  If you set up ICQ on your computer (and it's really easy to
do), and a friend of yours did the same, then whenever you wanted to
chat with your friend, you would just send a message and if he/she is
there, they will see a little flashing icon and would open it to respond
and a "chat dialogue" box would open up on both of your screens and
whala!  
The neat thing is that you can have multiple people in the same
coversation at once:)
This way, we could all talk in real time.   If anyone is interested, go
to www.icq.com and go to download the setup and just follow the
instructions.  If anyone has any questions, just write me back:)
