HI,
I was wondering if anyone knows any good instant messanger programs
that handle gmail, msn, aim, etc. I use gaim right now, i was just
wondering anyone knew anything better.

Thank U!

the only real options are gaim and trillian

Gaim has a nice simple interface, and is very clean

Trillian on the other side has a lot of skins and tons of weird features

And supposively google's client will eventually have at least aim integration possibly more.

Personally I use a combo....usually GAIM for AIM and Yahoo, and then Windows Live Messenger and Google Talk (I have a lot of ram so it doesn't make much of a difference)

For you I'd suggust to just stay with Gaim, unless you like something that's all pretty and annoying (to me)  Trillian http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/

I'm sure there's a few others out there, but those are the major ones

well I too have been wondering ?? if there are any other good Messenger
Programs out there ..other than MSN or YAHOO

a Message where you can also do a Live Video chat

I talk with my Brother ,,, VIA MSN Messenger most every night

and well MSN . it use to be good . but like anyone else once they suck you
in . there don't care as long as they have your $$$$

so if anyone does know of a Place where you can do LIVE VIDEO Chat .please
do let us all know

new Programs these day in the fear of VIRUSES

but here is the link to the SIGHT SPEED place check it out

and if anyone else knows of any other CHAT & VIDEO rooms other than these
named in the E-MAIL please let me KNOW OK

miranda is very good, but i feel that trillian does it in a more
user-friendly sort of way
