What is ICQ Chat?

ICQ — short for "I Seek You" — was the chat platform that started it all for a generation of internet users. Before social media, before smartphones, ICQ chat was how people talked online. ICQChat.org exists to bring that back in a modern, browser-based form. No UIN numbers needed, no software to install. Just open, free, real-time ICQ chat in your browser. Talk to people from all over the world on topics ranging from everyday life and current events to nostalgia for the early internet era that ICQ helped define.
