from Wired.com – Never IM in This Town Again! 從Wired.com -不要即時在該城再次！

David Ferris, an instant message expert and president of 戴維費里斯，即時信息專家和總裁 Ferris Research Ferris Research的 in San Francisco, said he hadn't heard of using IM to advertise work status, but liked the idea. 在舊金山說，他從未聽說過使用IM宣傳工作的地位，但很喜歡這個主意。 “It's a natural extension,” he said. “這是一個自然延伸，”他說。

Which brings me to trucking.這使我想到運輸。 One of the reasons I like driving for the company we drive for is their use of technology and not just the Qualcomm's, “ we know where you're at technology “.其中一個原因，我想推動公司開車的是其使用的技術，而不僅僅是高通的，“ 我們知道你的技術 ”。 Which they don't use.他們不使用。

For example.例如。 The owner, who dispatches from Las Vegas, dispatchers in Maine, Indiana and dispatchers and sales people in Vegas all communicate with each other through Instant Messaging.所有者，誰從拉斯維加斯調度，調度員在緬因州，印第安納州，調度員和銷售人員都在拉斯維加斯相互溝通，通過即時消息。 Also with any broker that uses IM.還與任何經紀使用即時消息。 The dispatcher I have at the moment says he can have several im conversations going on at the same time and all without playing phone tag or having three different phones ringing.調度員，我此刻說，他可以有多個IM對話正在進行在同一時間，所有的標籤不打手機或有三種不同的電話鈴聲。 When I'm stopped and the computer is turned on I'm in the loop too.當我停了下來，打開電腦，我在循環了。 Even better, is when the truck is moving or I'm away from the computer, my im's go to my cell phone.更妙的是，是當卡車正在或者我離開計算機，我的IM的到我的手機。 A program downloaded (free) to my cell phone acts as an IM client, so it's not just a text message.一個程序下載（免費）我的手機充當IM客戶端，因此它不只是文字信息。

I like it because I can IM the office and just ask a question or ask someone to call me without the phone tag or “they'll call you right back”.我喜歡它，因為我可以即時辦公室，只是問一個問題或讓別人叫我沒有手機的標籤或“他們會打電話給你馬上回來”。 So much more efficient.因此，更為有效。
