Pidgin – Instant Messaging

Posted by Jason Meridth on October 24, 2007

I have started using Pidgin instant messaging.  It consolidates my Google Talk, MSN Messenger, and Yahoo Accounts.  I’ve used Trillian in the past with success but it doesn’t include Google Talk.  I also have Skype for voice messaging.  I hope Pidgin can include that someday.

What does everyone else use?

      I use Pidgin as well, I’ve been using it since it was called Gaim.

      I use Adium and Skype. It sure would be nice if Skype was more open to integrate with Adium but I guess that is why Skype works almost everywhere – even places that block most regular im clients.

      I love Pidgin because it works in Ubuntu (Linux) also. :)

      I forgot that Pidgin was the Gaim rename.

      @Chris,
      I’ll have to check out Adium. Thanks.
