Module 2: Chat

For this task I decided to download the chatting program ICQ. I think the last time I used ICQ was probably when I was in year 9 (wow!).

I downloaded ICQ from http://www.icq.com/download.

I then installed it..

After the installation finished, ICQ popped up automatically.

I then created a new ICQ account.

It's been awhile since I last used ICQ and to be honest, I actually enjoyed using it! I thought I might not like it since I'm used to other chatting programs these days. BUT! It was interesting to use it once again. The difference between ICQ and other chatting programs is that you send short messages to one another. Unlike MSN, where you chat on a single page.

ICQ is a great way to communicate with others and I liked the features where you can find people from all different places by simply searching by name, country, gender etc.

I enjoyed using this program because I think it's quite similar to the chatting program I'm currently using (Nateon - which is a Korean instant messenging program).

In conclusion, ICQ is simple to use, no hassles, no complications, just easy and fun messenging chatting program which I would recommend to others!
