Instant messaging, apart from actually speaking to someone directly or on the phone, is one of the easiest ways of communicating with friends, family or work colleagues. Some IM clients are aimed at younger audiences, but there are more business orientated applications available, which are extremely useful for communicating with colleagues within a workplace. It’s an easy to use system and almost instantaneous, so there’s no need to wait on undelivered emails.

PopMessenger 1.62 is an IM client that once logged on; enables users to retrieve messages received offline. You can also send group messages which feature the time and date of sent messages, which could be very useful in the workplace.
