Post by Obadiah »

ive been hearing of a messenger that combines all messengers into one...at present i thought the only one that did this was Yahoo at&t it allows you to talk to your buddies from MSN messenger....is there one out there that combines ICQ, Yahoo, MSN, and AIM? :?

If you are using Windows, Trillian or bust. No joke.

I use tillian on windows I like the minimalist style where you can make the windows nice and small stack on one side and they don't get in the way whilst you develop. For shear quality of software though Adium is the outright winner (Mac only)

Trillian's been out forever, but I prefer AIM. Less people have access to me.
