Im new to computers but i want to know how to chat with another friend without having to compose and wait for a reply. Like actual talking back and forth but typing it. Sorry for such a dumb question but im trying to learn.

For chat on yahoo ,You have to sign in with your id and password on Yahoo messenger .
There ,you have to Add your friend's email address of Yahoo , and he would appear online , You can chat with him/her.
Also you can send offline messages to your friends using YM.
Same is the case with Msn messenger .You need an id from www.hotmail.com , download MSN messenger
Rest of the procedure is same .
Msn has also recently started offline messages service by Messenger 8.0 beta .
Hope this helps you.

Sidra

I find MSN messenger is a good start - although Yahoo has an equivalent too!
Download MSN messenger, then, if you have a hotmail address, type this and the password in to log in.
You'll then be "online" to talk.
To talk to your friend, get their hotmail address. Then go to "contacts" - "add contact" and type in their address as prompted.
If s/he is online and accepts you, they'll appear on your list - all you have to do is click on their new icon (you'll see it there) and type to talk!

If your frined has AIM (AOL Instant Messenger) you can download that program and install it and then use it to talk. www.aim.com is the place. You will need to sign up for an screenname though, then you can download and talk. Good luck!
