Whats the most efficient way to do inter-office messaging w/out internet access?

I need something that is easy to use for 5 people in an office environment. The office has NO internet access. Any ideas?
 
Yelling real loud doesn't work?


EDIT: Woohah, I replied to your post during the same minute it was posted. Rather nifty, I think... 😉
 
go in the dos prompt. type "net send <computer name> and your message" should work with all nt domains.

computer name would be the person network log-in
 


<< Email, and CC it to everybody. >>



LOL, I already know about that option.
 
i am also interested in something like this, there is yabber, but it cost money :---( if you find anything plz let me know.

I know of VCM, it has the features that you are looking for.
It is nowhere near as polished as ICQ or the like, but it seems to work OK from what I have seen.
 


<< Why not just try it and find out? >>



1) I am not at their office.
2) I posted here asking for feedback from people w/ user experience and ideas.
3) I do not feel like wasting my time trying to make something work if it will not.
4) Why don't you try it out and let me know how it works.

Because I only have 1 computer on at home and I'm too lazy to fire up the others.

On the rag today?

😀
 
I vote for paper footballs and stickies....


It not only works, buts its fun too...

Are these machines linked together by cable and what OS's are running?
 
Did you mean intra-office messaging? If so, then setting up a spare machine to act as an email server or a chat server would be my idea of most efficient. Your defintion of 'efficient' might be different than mine.

But you really meant inter-office, how far apart are these offices and if so, my vote goes for carrier pigeon since you don't have internet access.
