IM discussions at the same time

[leejam]

How many buddies are you usually instant messaging at the same time?

[MartinBradley]

I voted for 2-4. I find anymore than that way too hectic, and I can't keep up with all the conversations.

[Hasan]

Just One! most of the time as I'm not too fond of chatting and that only happens in case I have something important to ask or tell!

[Jeff]

Congratulations, leejam. I made your poll our feature poll on the front page.

I answered 2-4, but it really varies. Sometimes I'll have more, but when I'm deep in conversation I stick with one at time.

[ALLEYCAT]

10+ as an average

[gossipingrae]

i answered 2-4 also. sometimes more, sometimes less.

[Hurricane22491]

Usually around 2-4 for me, but I guess it varies.

[Quiksilver]

I'm usually around 2-4, but it really varies from time to time. There are different people on at different times and I usually get more than 5 at one time a day, but it is more often that I talk to 2-4. At about 5 though it gets pretty confusing to keep up. It takes practice !

I usually find myself talking to probably 5-10 but sometimes I am just tired / lazy and can't take talking to 5-10 people and either ghost or just subconsciously ignore people.

I used to talk to about 5-10 people. Now that I got a real career and more things to do it's just one person.
