Five reasons IM is better than real chat (as in real-life talking)

• Copy-paste
• Try saying Sigur Rós’ “()”…
• You can’t (usually) be naked when you talk to people. And being naked while chatting with people is awesome.
• IM’s history (which sometimes can be a bad thing, too, actually)
• It just doesn’t matter if you’re “socially awkward” when you chat online
