many people like me have lots of friend and they're all not going to use the same chat client. so, some would download all the diferent clients their friends may have. but this would take lots of disk space

, there is an easier way.

i found out about trillian. trillian allows you to chat with mulrtiple clients like, MSN, yahoo,ICQ, AIM, and something called IRC???, the pro version adds more clients. with the regular version you can have regular text messaging, and voice messaging (video pro only) with emotics, and file transfer.

best of all there is a newer version, that is still on alpha testing, tralian astra. the newer version will add lots of new features, support for Gtalk and myspace IM, also, a web base version.

I tried Trillian once, I didn't like it but I don't remember why. I prefer MSN Messenger because of the interface and the features but I also use AIM too. Yahoo I just didn't really care for. Now you don't really need Trillian because the messengers are allowing you to add AIM contacts to MSN or MSN to AIM because it brings more users. I have Yahoo friends on MSN but I still keep AIM and MSN separate because of the different features and it would take some getting used to to just switch to one.

I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't mind the hassle because I'm used to it and soon they will be one anyway.

you can also use meebo. i've heard about trillian, the smiley set of that i use on my tagboard. i've heard meebo will create a desktop application soon. meebo allows you to connect to your favorite client using your username and password. and you can also create a single meebo account and customize it so you can connect to some (if not all) of your accounts in different clients.

Need Multi-user Chat - (4)

I've been searching for quite some time for a free multiple person chat. I run an RPG site where
I need a somewhat fast responsive chat in order to correctly RP to my members, and I need to be able
to log in multiple times from the same computer (since I commonly RP as 3-4 NPCs at a time) all with
different names. Most chats I've found were either incredibly laggy/slow, or did not let me log
in more than once, and sometimes did not even allow me to change my name. I used to use Parachat and
had to pay roughly 5$ a month which is quite a lot on a tight colleg...

Best Messaging Client - (18)

What do you think is the best messaging client? Right now, I must say Trillian, because it allows
multiple acount log ins at the same time. But it's only for windows, and I'm not sure if
there's a linux version...and I am about to switch to linux. So once I switch to linux, i'd
probably go for Gaim. Although it does not allow multiple accounts, it does allow IRC chatting. and
furthermore, it is open source ! there's a lot of room for improvement...but im not sure how
much active its community is. And although both Gaim and Trillian can be invi...
