There are CLI based IRC, IM, and web-browsers that you can use to communicate with friends.
By the command line tools are a bit more protocol specific than the GUI tools, if you can tell use what IM service you want to you we can point you to a Linux based CLI IM client for the protocol.

You can always use the "write" command if your friends are logged on the same system.
Anyway, I belive you are talking about a cli IM as http://ojnk.sourceforge.net/
There's plenty of them, just check the internet (maybe you'd like the pidgin cli version...)
