I have opted to use my msn messenger as I been having some trouble downloading ICQ and using ichat on my mac. As time is passing so quickly, I thought it would be better to use a program i am more comfortable with. But I would like to work out what is wrong with my ichat as i think this program would be a good one to use.
The reason for not being able to install ICQ is because my computer is MAC OSX 10.5.7 and ICQ only supports MacOS 8.1-8.5, MacOS 8.6 and MacOS 9-X. I then tried to use Ichat, which is a program already installed on my computer, but I have seem to have forgotten my password. I have tried to retrieve my password but the program doesn't seem to email me the details.
I find msn is good for social chatting, rather than for professional use. Msn is great for group chats but if you are a slow typer, it is hard to keep up with your friends and can get frustrating at times. When I am in the office, I use my skype to chat to my work collgues. The group function on this is easy to use and very clear. Also sending files is much quicker and it is able to support larger files!
I personally believe that msn is probably the best and easiest for both PC and MAC users. Downloading and installing the program and straight forward, and even the most computer illiterate person would be able to do this with ease. The only negative comment I have about msn is that the MAC version is always so far behind with upgrading the software, while the PC version is always improving. The interface on the PC is also much better and modern than the MAC interface which still appears like the PC msn over 5 years ago.
Group wa completed on Thursday 9th July on msn messenger. The exercise was simple and enjoyable. I found that it is easy to loose the conversation topic because if you dont type back quickly, the next conversion will arise. So as i mentioned in earlier paragraph, it can get a little confusing. But I believe that it is good function to have because trying to manage 2 or more chats in different windows can become too overwhelming and confusing!
