The movement part of the program will run every 3 real life hours, once a cantr hour, I think. When that part runs, it will put you in your destination.

Welcome to the game :D
Reality was never my strong point.

A Cantr hour is three real-life hours. More information on Cantr time: http://www.cantr.net/mwiki/index.php/Time

Usually people get messages to each other by walking to each other. Radios exist but are expensive.

The postal service is probably a business that hires people to carry letters from town to town. There is no hard-coded postal system, nor are there built-in systems for trade, government or military organization; player characters are supposed to work those out (and whatever else they want) among themselves through roleplaying.

Yep, there are no NPCs in Cantr. There is also no preset governments or curriencies. Everything is established by the characters. :D

There is no current way to domestiacate animals, however, that is something that is being worked towards.

I'm not sure, but I think minutes reset happens in a couple of hours.

Save your minutes. Log out when you're not playing, and so on.
