    Attention Your Favourite IM (Messenger)

    Hey guys,

    never used yahoo or Aol religiously, only if i need to speak to someone and thats all they got.

    so what messenger do u use and why? :nowords:

    I was reading an article on Instant Messengers, and how Microsoft, IBM, Yahoo and Co. are planning to cash in on Instant Messaging by selling it to corporates. One of the big plus points was that for a fee, you could use Instant Messenging between all 3 of the big players systems, with say just MSN.

    On a related topic, can I use my Hotmail address with Yahoo Messenger?

    I use irc, msn, yahoo and AIM. I use all of them except irc on gaim (http://gaim.sf.net) which is a free client that connects you to nearly every chat protocol there is.

    used to use Trillian, was cool, but i only ever used MSN on it, so went back to MSN only, does the job, simple interface, even though it may be bloatware.
