I need urgently to get some kind of proof that my hunch of Instant Messaging being more popular than IRC is correct. So which do you REGULARLY (at least four hours every week) use? I'll probably totter off and get some other sites in on this, because a gaming site will be skewed.

This is for a 2500 word essay on “To what extent is the language used in Instant Messaging conversations divorced from other modes of written and spoken conversation”, all due in on Thursday (my motivation is at an all time low as far as education goes ). If you think you have any additional opinions that may help, don't be afraid to post.
