Okay, I'll go along with MSN, and discard ICQ...
Look promising Google Talk. |

This is still a BETA, but it's surprisingly stable!
I already have ICQ and MSN (together in my instant messenger - Trillian), and I managed to setup Google talk to run inside it using the Jabber protocol (As far as I know, Google is using the Jabber protocol for instant messaging), but I can't use any VOIP features yet  . Just hope that Cerulean studios release a Google Talk plug-in soon! I don't want to stick in a bunch of instant messengers in my system tray and slow down my computer so that I can stay in touch with only one person that uses a different IM protocol than me... |

My friend told me of GoogleTalk today and I went straight to their website and downloaded it and I must say, it's incredible! It's so simple and pretty :love: and I can't wait I tell others about it.I think I'll just remove MSN and start using GoogleTalk.

Google really do what peoples need. They showed this with google talk again
Its a bit different from all other chat apps. I like that there are no smilies pics yIpI that was so annoying.I also think they should change the way of loging into gmail. When for example you get more then 1 new email and you click on the red envelope in the notify you get to a page where you only see 1 email. The left menu should also be visable. But its beta and I love it! Google is my friend!

Yup msn is much better, as is aim. No need to get ANOTHER im program that not many people use yet. It is in beta though, it will probably be MUCH much better by the time its fully complete. It looks pretty promising, if i get Gmail and it seems better then msn or aim i might use it.

Yeah, I definitely might try this thing out, but I've only ever used one chat program, AIM. And as everyone says it will be hard to use it often when there is no one to talk to...but we'll see what happens...
