1. See who's available on-line
2. Send a private message

You can try BigAnt Live Chat, which is a web-based real time communication solution. I found a free download url:

Hope this helps.

You can also use Digsby (www.digsby.com). If you add their widget to your webpage, visitors to your website can chat with you when you are logged into Digsby and online.
