They work; it would just be easier to use one client- MSN likes to kick me off.

I like msn the best.

I had YIM for a while but I had some bad experiences with a person so I haven't gone back >_>

The first one I used was AIM. I had a really good friend on there when I was obsessed with Harry Potter. o.o >< Then that computer died and a year later I am like "...Well, damn." ...But, I use MSN now. 8D

Yes, for example, www.meebo.com. It uses the libpurple library (the same library that Pidgin uses).

Trillian = winnar. That way you can just use all of them at once :P

@mangakaluna: That was ICQ.

i prefer msn, but it just happens to startup on its own all the time, so i don't have any options.

ICQ was my first, but then it got bought up by AIM and they turned it into another AIM, it makes me sad.

Does anyone remember POWWOW?  That was fun, I like the voice fonts

My first was AIM.

ICQ confused me with all the numbers when I was a little kid. @_@
