Instant messaging on a home network?  Try a low-tech holler:
	"SOOOOEEE!  TURN ON THE MODEM!"

When my wife wants me when I'm downstairs, she knocks on the floor.

Or she tells our dog George: "go get Doug".

Talk?  I think there are X talk clients if you don't want to keep an
xterm open.

If its just a single message: good old write.

Doug.
