A two-way pager that weights 6 pounds and costs $500 or more. You can talk to more people at a time using instant messenger than you can with a two-way. You can also type, access the Internet, and play video games in a more humane manner.
For those who would rather have radiation splashing onto their face rather than zapping their genitalia, instant messenger is the way to go.

I use instant messenger when I'm at my day job, but I can only use a two-way at my, uh..., night job.

A person who is competitive and gregarious by nature.
The skill of a playa is measured by the extent of his or her "game." The more "game" a playa has, the more respect they command in their community.
A person who has enough game (and hence, enough respect) can do whatever they want, dress however awful (or tacky) they want, say whatever crazy things they want to say, and still win the adoration of others. Often these skills are used to earn sexual or material favors, although not by necessity.
Playas are mostly motivated by the ego drive that comes with self expression and self manifestation for its own ends. In many ways, playas are trend-setters rather than trend-followers.
Game recognizes game, and a true playa will always give respect to a fellow playa when it is due. People who ignore (read: fail to notice), criticize, or alienate themselves from a playa without just cause is referred to as a "playa hater."
