AIM Away Messages,,

[BagManMan]

I was just wondering if its possible to read away messages from AIM users...?

[Shmanky]

I don't know, have you tried?

[Brian]

Nah I don't think so, you'd have to type messages to see away messages from AIM users!

You may have luck seeing away messages using GAIM or Trillian.

quote:mirror site
<networking> An archive site or web site which keeps a copy of some or all files at another site so as to make them more quickly available and to reduce the load on the source site.

It is generally best to use the mirror that is physically closest to you as this will usually give the fastest download.

Such mirroring is usually done for specific whole directories or files on a specific remote server as opposed to a cache or proxy server which keeps copies of everything that is requested via it.

For example, src.doc.ic.ac.uk is the main UK mirror for the GNU archive at gnu.org. There are also several mirrors of this dictionary.
