So, which is your favourite Instant Messenger? Mine has to be MSN but I do have all the other ones and ICQ looks cool and GTalk gas great potential. What about you?

I voted MSN as most people have it, I did have AIM once but I only ever used it if the person didn't have messenger.

Yeah that's what I do too Fleeboi, I have every IM installed onto my PC but only go onto them if someone only has that IM or I go on them once a month to see if I have been added by someone.

Only sillyheads use the official clients. I prefer to use Adium X (http://www.adiumx.com/) for instant messenging- it can be used for both MSN, ICQ, AIM, YIM, Googletalk, Jabber and more.

Windows users might wanna check out GAIM or Trillian.

Nope, I use Mac OS X. Though I have been meaning to try out a Linux distro on one of the junk PCs I own...

I've tried out AIM and ICQ, but they pretty much suck against MSN. MSN just has more stuff to do with your on.ine buddies...like play hexic against them and kick their arse nonstop. Good times...

I tried MSN for a week and just didn't like it.

I think I still have it incase I need it though.

I chose aim, because I have DeadAim which I can't go without.

I do like how Google talk is such a small file to run though.

The best game on MSN was the football one which was playable during the Euro 2004 tournament. I hope it comes back for the 2006 World Cup in Germany. :D
