This is my wife and I. We're actually sitting in opposite ends of the
house, each on our own computer. And I just IM'ed this to her.
Hmmmm.....

Try sitting in the same room, IM'ing ... :D
Actually we weren't serious. We did it just for the fun of it.

We did that at college. Some twat wrote a VB progarm called "intercom"
which uses a flat file on a network drive to communicate. (Yes, that's
pretty lame.)
I used the DOS "DEBUG" command to hex-edit the file and replace the true
author's name with my own. (It just happens to have *exactly* the same
number of characters.) I should point out that nobody except him had the
source code; we only had the object code.
Jesus, we were bored...

I have had hundred-message-long email conversations with the person in the
cube next to mine. It was that kind of company.

Actually, that's not terribly lame. That's how some of the first
networked games provided communication over a network. ncsnipes did it
this way, for example.
