Heh, I'm not an IM/IRC kind of guy. I strongly prefer the async nature |
| 7 |
of newsgroups and email, where I can take two hours composing a detailed |
| 8 |
reply if I want, a week or whatever later if I want, and not have to |
| 9 |
worry about the other end waiting. |

So I don't install any of that sort of stuff. If I want instant, I use |
| 12 |
my (VoIP based) phone. |

Yeah, I know that doesn't work so well with the "millenial generation", |
| 15 |
but as I'm in my mid-40s I'm young enough to appreciate email, but I |
| 16 |
guess not young enough to appreciate IM/IRC. |
