ICQ was the first, which is why most of us in the industry use it.
Before ICQ we used a little program called "talk.exe" which was a pain in the arse. You used to have to figure out your IP address and email it to the person you wanted to talk to before you could talk to each other. When ICQ came around it was a huge improvement.
