Instant messaging allows you to exchange real time messages with other people over the Internet. To send and receive instant messages, you need a connection to the Internet and instant messaging software.
The VistaNet Messenger is faster than e-mail and best of all, it's FREE to VistaNet customers. Set up your IM with a list of friends who also use IM so you can see when each friend is online at any particular moment and begin a conversation with them quickly and easily.
