Internet Instant Messaging

Internet instant messaging (IM) is a real-time communication service that allows users to send text messages instantly over the internet. It enables individuals or groups to chat live, often with additional features like file sharing, voice or video calls. IM works through dedicated apps or platforms, which connect users through servers that transmit messages instantly, creating a continuous, conversational experience. It’s widely used for personal communication, professional collaborations, and social interactions, providing a quick, convenient way to stay connected without the delays of emails or phone calls.
