Please explain to an old man Jeff. what these "messengers" are and how I would benefit from having one or more. I'm lucky that my wife usually delivers my messages.

Thanks for that Mark, it appears that I already have such a system in Skype as on a regular basis I send and receive text and files also a white board to illustrate points under discussion. Is this much different to the ones mentioned?

Skype is an Instant Messenger. I don't personally use it, but a lot of people do

Thanks for that Mark, you have made an old man very happy in knowing that I'm keeping up with technology.

I use Skype ocasionally. I used ICQ at one time (Does it still exist??) but can't be bothered with any of the others.

Brian, have you sorted the feedback problem yet?

I use Yahoo for my email but Skype is what we use to talk about making sawdust.
