ICQ is a revolutionary,
user-friendly Internet tool that informs you who's on-line at any time
and enables you to contact
them at will. No
longer will you search in vain for friends or associates on the Net. ICQ
does the searching for you, alerting you in real time when they log
on. The need to conduct a directory search each time you want to communicate
with a specific person is eliminated.
With ICQ, you can chat, send messages, files and URL's, play games, or just hang out with your fellow 'Netters' while still surfing the Net.
It lets you choose the mode of communication you wish to employ. Regardless of the application, be it chat, voice, whiteboard, data conferencing, file transfer or Internet games, ICQ will get your entire message across in real time.
ICQ supports a variety of popular Internet applications and serves as a Universal Platform from which you can launch any peer-to-peer application (such as Microsoft NetMeeting or Netscape CoolTalk).
It can also be used in a multiple-user mode, so groups can conduct conferences or just 'hang out' on-line.
The program runs in the background, taking up minimal memory and Net resources. While you work with other applications, ICQ alerts you when friends and associates log in, allowing you to work efficiently while maintaining a wide range of Internet functions at your fingertips. Among the functions available are: chat, message, e-mail, and URL and file transfer.
All these functions are
consolidated into one easy-to-use program that integrates smoothly into
desktop systems.
HOW DOES IT
WORK ?
It's simple. When you
install ICQ, the program asks you to register at a server, which is connected
to a broad network of
servers spanning the
Internet. At the time of registration, you receive a unique UIN (Universal
Internet Number). In addition, ICQ gives you the option of entering personal
information along with your UIN. This allows other ICQ users to
recognize you when you
log on.
Once you've registered,
you can compile a selected list of friends and associates. ICQ uses this
list to find your friends
for you. Meanwhile, ICQ
waits quietly in the background without interrupting any other applications
in use. As soon as you log onto the Internet, ICQ automatically detects
the Internet connection, announces your presence to the Internet
community and alerts you when friends sign on or off.
Once you know who's on,
all it takes is a click of an icon to initiate chat, implement URL transfers,
send messages, exchange files, or launch any external peer-to-peer
applications.
THE ICQ SERVER
NETWORK
The ICQ technology is
based on a proprietary server and database network. The ICQ network was
designed as a global solution for a large number of users. 'By routing
all inter-user communications as peer-to-peer, we take the load off the
servers, enabling them to support a huge number of users' says Yair Goldfinger,one
of the four founders of ICQ.
