Trillian, or Pidgin if you need more than ICQ/AIM/MSN/YIM and IRC for some reason.
Title: Re: Which Instant Messenger Shud I Git
Post by: Hiro on June 17, 2008, 05:39:55 PM
Any reason?
Title: Re: Which Instant Messenger Shud I Git
Post by: mario583 on June 17, 2008, 05:40:16 PM
Pidgin.

I am told that Trillian takes way too long to start up after a while of just sitting there.......mocking you..

Gaim just starts instantly no matter how long it sits there unused.

Pidgin is better.
