ICQ (short for "I Seek You") is an instant messaging application that lets users find and communicate with people worldwide via text, audio, video, file transfers, and PC-to-phone calls. It serves a general consumer audience looking to connect with friends, family, and colleagues. First released in November 1996, ICQ assigns each registered user a unique numeric ID and supports contact directories, group chat, and multi-player gaming.
