The Great thing about IM

I just spent some time chatting with Allana from the Commission. Chatting is a nice way to communicate with people when you need to just say a few things. I use chat a lot to talk with family out of state. It's free and we can be online as long as we want. I also found that I can chat and still get other things done on the computer. I would like to set up a Meebo account and use it for Reference questions here at the library. I think it would be a great tool. I know the UNO Criss Library is using Meebo and it seems to work great. It's a fast easy way to get the answer you need. I have been using GoogleTalk and so far haven't had any issues with it. I would like to use it more in my professional life, not just my personal life.
