Any grrls wanna cyber?

So I just got this IRQ thing that lets you "chat" "online" with your "friends". Does anybody else use it?

Hopefully I will be able to use it at home if this is any good.

Apparently my number is 160024047. I don't really think they have 160 million users.

*confused* do you mean ICQ? or is this another of the millions of programs out there...?

[babysimon]

I was being slightly ironic about the way this program has suddenly made me feel like a newbie again.

Yes, I did mean ICQ.

Well, GnomeICU doesn't seem to work for creating accounts. I can imagine you're brimming with sympathy, you heretic you!

I've been told that AIM is the best current option.

I come quite close to being a fundamentalist Stallmanite. I do install non-free software, but I have vrms installed to nag me about it each month. acroread is probably the only one I *really* couldn't do without - not until gv is upgraded to PDF1.3 anyway.

That'll be why you're using GNOME then.

Anyway, I saw you download photos from your digicam using Windows. Don't try to deny it.

Anyway*2, I wanted to talk to my friends online, not get into a flamewar.

That's what they all say...

You mean they aren't the same thing?

Yes, especially the ICQ client which reveals your IP address to every Tom, Dick and Harry. I personally prefer Trillian, but it has a tendency to sometimes unexpectedly crash.

Is generally full of bugs and viruses, it played lots of havock with my machine, be warned. Gave up using it when it kept insisting on sending complete histories to people.
