We probably have ICQ to thank for that, too. With chatting, another topic is also being introduced. When a friend’s status on ICQ changes from red to green, this leads to a huge emotional explosion on the other side of the computer. Today, when we are all constantly online, we can hardly imagine the situation at that time. That is why it is often higher in the 1990s, in the early years of the Internet. The online time runs over the normal telephone bill. Flat rates or the like did not exist in this form. When does the red flower change to green? That means a friend just went online.

Now young people sit in front of their computers and wait for their friends. Suddenly, thanks to Messenger, it’s possible to write or chat, as it’s now called, with people all over the world, and all of this in real time. Since mobile phones are not yet universally available, young people have exchanged ICQ numbers.

Every user receives a unique ICQ number, initially six digits, later eight digits and a valuable asset.

Access is extremely easy: install the free ICQ software, enter the relevant data and off you go. Thanks to ICQ, this can now also be done by computer. To explain: Up until the 1990s, young people made appointments in person or over the phone.
