I know you're all AOL Instant Messenger freaks, but, hell, I can't get that at work but I do now have MSN Messenger working. So, if you fancy a real-time natter, my MSN Messenger name is

nick@beatbay.co.uk

Message away!

MSN Rocks. Trillian rocks better, but Fire is cool enough for OS X

The dreaded They have done something to *stop* us using Microsoft Messenger, Nick, which is really stupid as I did actually use to communicate with someone in our other building a mile and a half up the road. It was very useful for relaying instructions when installing software ect ect.

But you never know, if you're ever working late, you might find me signed in on my laptop at home.

I think I had, at the last count, 14 contacts, of whom over half are never signed in. At least a couple are ilxers (hello Dom!).

I have about 70 contact and I don't know who at least 60% of them are.

I got sick of being paged by women ended in 'i' (tammi, pammi, sammi etc) who told me that they had a new webcam and wasn't it just cool!

Though that was mainly an ICQ thing.

I would never get sick of being paged by women ended in 'i' (tammi, pammi, sammi etc) telling me that they had a new webcam and wasn't it just cool

Top tip: kill your Hotmail accounts every two years. Saves MSN conversations with "kooky" 15 year olds from, like, Leicster with names like "mAnSoN's@nGeL".

So...

I've got to arrange for a webconference link between the two offices my company has. I've set everything up and we're using Microsoft Messenger, which is okay when it works but a bit flaky when it doesn't.

It seems that when the internet is busy between the two offices the connection cuts out a lot.

Is there other software that's better in this respect or is it just a problem with the link between us? It's UK broadband at thi end, and a Uni network at the other, and I don;t think upgrading either would make much difference, because when it works it's fine, so I guess the bottleneck is somewhere in between>

Any ideas?
