Hmmm.  I've never heard of AIM.  In fact, I'm hopeless with these 
messenger things.  I had ICQ once, but it got messed up good and 
proper when I picked up a virus.  I've  just uninstalled Yahoo 
Messenger because it wasn't working properly, so I'm now 
uncontactable (not that anyone other than allegedly scantily-clad 
ladies ever dreams of sending me a message anyway, but it feels good 
to be on standby).

The point of this aimless rambling is to wonder which of these 
internet messenger things is best to use and whether it's possible to 
get away with not having more than one or having none at all.

I'm happy to hear advice offlist, if you can work out what I just 
asked.
