Instant messaging (IM)

  • Is a technology which is a type of online chat allowing real-time text transmission over the Internet or another computer network.
  • Messages are typically transmitted between two or more parties, when each user inputs text and triggers a transmission to the recipient(s), who are all connected on a common network.
  • It differs from email in that conversations over instant messaging happen in real-time (hence "instant"). Most modern IM applications (sometimes called "social messengers", "messaging apps" or "chat apps") use push technology.
