Computeractive
issue 94
20 September to 3 October
 The
relentless pace of technology brings us many advantages
but one disadvantage keeping up with it. That's where
Computeractive comes in. There's a new way to communicate
that is becoming popular worldwide instant messaging.
It's better than email because it's instant and it's better
than mobile phone text messaging because when you're online,
it's free. More people are using it to chat on their PCs,
exchange files and even hold 'conference chats' with lots
of people at once. Read the feature on page 14 and make
sure you keep up with the latest technology.
