Instant Answer

When you are away from your computer and signed on to AOL or AIM (America Online Instant Messenger), you automatically have the capability of leaving an "away message" for anybody who writes you. Instant Answer GREATLY extends this capability, by allowing you to leave different messages for different people. You can set one message for your spouse, another for your kids, and another for strangers. Instant Answer is an extremely powerful and useful method of communication.
