Attention New Englanders! Looking to talk to people in your area with similar interests or
hobbies....or are you looking to meet people? Sick and tired of all the OTHER
cookie-cutter user lists that are too broad, convoluted, and unwieldy...or ones
you actually have to *gasp* pay for? Looking for a list with photos? Well look no further! Welcome to the only focused user list of ICQ
members for the New England region! Please be advised this list is VERY new, and therefore pretty small. It's up to YOU to change that!
This list, broken down by gender and state, allows you to see profiles of
people who use ICQ and live near you! In addition, anyone who adds their info to
the list receives a FREE clickable graphic to include in their own
homepage, complete with installation instructions! Future additions to this site
include a searchable database, so keep this page bookmarked!

What is ICQ?
(Excertped from ICQ, Inc.'s home page.)
ICQ is a revolutionary, user-friendly Internet tool that informs you who's
on-line at any time and enables you to contact them at will. No longer will you
search in vain for friends or associates on the Net. ICQ does the searching for
you, alerting you in real time when they log on. The need to conduct a directory
search each time you want to communicate with a specific person is
eliminated.
With ICQ, you can chat, send messages, files and URL's, play games, or just
hang out with your fellow 'Netters' while still surfing the Net.
ICQ lets you choose the mode of communication you wish to employ. Regardless
of the application, be it chat, voice, message board, data conferencing, file
transfer or Internet games, ICQ will get your entire message across in real
time. ICQ supports a variety of popular Internet applications and serves as a
Universal Platform from which you can launch any peer- to- peer application
(such as Microsoft NetMeeting or Netscape CoolTalk). It can also be used in a
multiple-user mode, so groups can conduct conferences or just 'hang out'
on-line. The program runs in the background, taking up minimal memory and Net
resources. While you work with other applications, ICQ alerts you when friends
and associates log in, allowing you to work efficiently while maintaining a wide
range of Internet functions at your fingertips. Among the functions available
are: chat, message, e-mail, and URL and file transfer.
All these functions are consolidated into one easy-to-use program that
integrates smoothly into desktop systems.
How does it work?
It's simple. When you install ICQ, the program asks you to register at a
server, which is connected to a broad network of servers spanning the Internet.
At the time of registration, you receive a unique ICQ number, also known as a
UIN (Universal Internet Number). In addition, ICQ gives you the option of
entering personal information along with your ICQ#. This allows other ICQ users
to recognize you when you log on. Once you've registered, you can compile a
selected list of friends and associates. ICQ uses this list to find your friends
for you. Meanwhile, ICQ waits quietly in the background without interrupting any
other applications in use. As soon as you log onto the Internet, ICQ
automatically detects the Internet connection, announces your presence to the
Internet community and alerts you when friends sign on or off.
Once you know who's on, all it takes is a click of an icon to initiate chat,
implement URL transfers, send messages, exchange files, or launch any external
peer-to-peer applications.
