I would prefer one for a private local home network....preferably free.

What I really want it is for IM other computers in my home network.
AIM sounds good.

AIM would work fine, the main benefit being that it's not limited to your local network.

They have this new system out that is tethered with twine and soup cans at the end. You have to pull really really tight so make sure there are no obstacles in the network. You might have to setup an VPN.

Hopefully AIM doesn't have a problem with spam and viruses.

I would prefer wireless....smoke signals are pretty good but can you lose the signals with high winds. Originally Posted by suprfast

Try running your own XMPP server. Wikipedia it for more info - Openfire is an XMPP server licensed under the GPL.

I hear that megaphones and loudspeakers are effective too.

A punch in the mouth sends an instant message....
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012
