did u know Icq??who is the owner of this website??[must read]

ICQ is a popular instant messaging computer program, which was first developed by the Israeli company Mirabilis, now owned by Time Warner's AOL subsidiary. The first version of the program was released in November 1996 and ICQ became one of the first Internet-wide instant messaging services. The name ICQ is a homophone for the phrase "I seek you". America Online (AOL) acquired Mirabilis on June 8, 1998 for US$407 million. Today ICQ is used by over 38 million users worldwide[citation needed]. According to Time Warner, ICQ has over 50 million accounts registered.[1]


HISTORY
Mirabilis was first established by five Israelis: Yair Goldfinger, Sefi Vigiser, Amnon Amir, Arik Vardi, and Arik's father Yossi Vardi. They recognized that many people were online accessing the Internet through a non-UNIX operating system, and that there was no software that enabled an immediate connection between them.
What was missing was the technology for locating and connecting the users of the Windows operating system.
The technology Mirabilis developed for ICQ was distributed free of charge. The technology's success caused AOL to acquire Mirabilis on June 8, 1998, for US$407 million. At the time, this was the highest price ever paid to purchase an Israeli technology company.
QQ, a Chinese instant messaging program and network, originally used the name OICQ. This name conflicted with ICQ, and the company changed the name to QQ.

now you all know the origin of this website so STOP CONTRIBUTE TO THE BASTARD ZIONIS!!!
