If you cant use MSN Messenger, or anything else why dont you try ICQ Anywhere or ICQ-2-Go. (I havent fixed my problem yet with ICQ 2 Go{(my contacts are missing, but Jeff's arnt})Its a really easy way to chat with friends when you have some free time with out downloading anything...

To use this go to www.icq.com and click on ICQ Anywhere, when that page loads click on load ICQ 2 Go from any web browser, on the right hand side..

Instant messaging didn't even exist when I was in school, but I've heard of professors using IM to let students contact them online instead of meeting them during designated office hours.

Here in the U.S. there are some universities such as the University of Phoenix which offer online classes. Students collaborate on projects using a combination of email, discussion forums and instant messaging.

I've also heard anectdotal evidence of teachers using collaborate tools such as NetMeeting with it's whiteboard and application sharing to actually teach classes. Try this search on Google about distance learning.

Of course, most students today are comfortable with IM, and use it regularly to keep in touch with friends and family.
