Instant Messaging Software?

[xenolith]

Which Instant Messenger do you think is more popular and better? I prefer ICQ hands down to the others, but I guess its just because Ive used it for so many years.

I use aol instant messanger. I like ICQ too, but most of my coworkers, friends, and family use AIM or have AOL so I stick with that.

We have MSN and AOL . My preference of the two is AOL as I find MSN is down more than it is up. I have never ventured into trying any of the rest, as I think my husband would die if I had another IM service on here. I keep the AOL for family and close friends so it is quite limited as to my user list. My MSN is loaded and when it does work, it works well.

Long time ICQ user here. I have tried a couple of others, Pow Wow was one of them. Does anyone remember that? Gone now.

All my bestest buddies have ICQ, so even if I used something else as well, I'd have to keep ICQ anyway and I found more than one was too clumsy.

I use all of them
Adele: I loved Pow Wow and its dedodedo song. LOL

hey guys,
I use msn, aol,and yahoo I do believe I like yahoo
the best, I like it because if you are not on line your friends can leave a short message to you that they were on and tell you inportant things. So next you click on you know you were missed haha Sil

AOL IM

I use AOL IM simply because most of the rest of my family who can barely use a computer use AOL. I do like that yahoo feature where you can leave a message for someone that is not online and they can see it when the sign back on.

Just to let you know......the msn was down quite a bit, it was because of "work" that they did. The hotmail part has improved quite a bit! I love to play around with the colored pages and text and smiley faces!
I also have ICQ and thats all I've tried. I'm new to this computer stuff so I haven't tried to many yet, and I couldn't tell you which one is best, I just use the one that I can understand! LOL

Let's see. I use AOL for my relatives, who have it. Yahoo for my coworkers and ATT for my mom (yes she is a relative too.) If only I could get them all onto one.
