(meteorobs) Online chatting and nebulous meteors



Hello Everyone.

This is just an idea, but ive come across this program which allows you
to engage in chats etc with other people across the net in real time
instead of having to go to a chat room etc.  The info below explains how
it works.  The program has one to one or an IRC type of chat mode. Ive
used it to talk to a few friends and it is quite alot of fun.  You just
have to download the program and install it.
Could be a good adition to our IRC channel !  Comments would be great.

Also, im still gathering the info on the nebulous meteors (Lew). 
Shouldn't be too long.

Bye all and clear skies

WHAT IS ICQ (I SEEK YOU)? 

The ICQ program overcame the main obstacle that prohibited the Internet
from becoming
a truly real-time, two way, interactive, person-to-person global
communication system.

The ICQ program enables you to "dial" anyone on the Net at your
discretion, without
having to make any prior arrangements with him or her. In fact, the
recipient of the call
needs only to install this program. There after, He or she will always,
when on the Internet, 
be alerted when you are contacting him/her. The program will indicate to
you, who of 
your list of designated frequent contacts, is logged-in at any given
point in time, ready to
receive Internet communications.

With ICQ you can initiate communication with anyone on the Internet at
anytime, be
it by text, voice, graphics, video or games. You can even send entire
URLs. Messages
are delivered directly to the recipient's computer, without the need for
downloading. 
If the recipient is "logged in", he or she can respond immediately and
open a direct
line of communication with you. If not, your message will be saved and
be made
available to the recipient as soon as he or she comes on line.

No longer will you search in vain for friends or associates on the net.
ICQ does the
searching for you, alerting you in real time when they sign on, thus
eliminating the
need to conduct a directory search each time you want to communicate
with a
specific person.

ICQ runs in the background and allows you to work and play on other
applications
while keeping track of incoming messages as well as the log-in status of
your
Internet associates.

This message will reach the person, and pop up on his/her screen, if
s/he is online - immediately;
if s/he is offline - as soon as he/she logs on to the Internet, wherever
he/she may be.

DOWNLOADING: If you wish to download our Windows 95, Winndows NT or
Windows 3.x versions you can download
