IMing- is that even a word?

Hmm- My first attempt at IMing someone? Not so much... I guess I can't expect anyone of my colleagues who aren't at work to be online on a Saturday afternoon. I'll have to give it a try next week. Since I already have a Gmail account, it seems to make the most sense for me to use Goggle Talk. I'm taking the advice of my younger, hipper, co-worker Emily and sticking with Google.
