Great Poll Rob A!

Trillian - for the "normal" IM clients.
Skype - voice mainly
IVE - for great video messaging

Gaim renamed themselves to "Pidgin". And it works very well for me.

I personally prefer Miranda myself and transitioned to it off of Trillian some time back. If you don't mind the fairly steep learning curve in finding the plugins to get the functionality you need/want and getting everything configured from a scratch state to your liking, it's an awesome messenger. It basically ends up being a free and more customizable version of trillian.

I swear, some people should have pace-makers installed to free up the resources. Breathing and heart beat taxes their whole system, all of their brain cells wasted on life support.-two bit brains, and the second bit is wasted on parity! ~head_spaz

Nice poll Rob A See Profile!

I voted none, although I do have MSN Messenger on my machine.

I use VoIP so I can call anyone for free, so messenging seems rather pointless.

Trillian FTW. Does AIM, MSN, ICQ, Yahoo etc all at the same time.

Lightweight, powerful, not burdened by bloatware or ads.
