`
`18. At the time of the alleged invention, the term “instant messaging” was
`
`known to generally refer to a service that allows for real-time communication
`
`between users via text, voice, and video. (See, e.g., Ex. 1024, 435.) The real-time
`
`nature of instant messaging differentiates it from other communication methods.
