with AIM, you can check mail from the IM service too.. AND, you can do a video chat, use a microphone to talk...exactly the same thing as MSNM.

Apart from using IM's i also like to use TTP, it is a very old form of messaging system and has been around almost forever. Yes it's old, but it still does the job and is better than current IM services out there.

MSNM still leads the poll...well, i guess most people use MSNM..probably because its sorta like the "wordwide" IM service...right?

you just register a passport.net account and you have to verify your mail and you're done.

Trillian here. It's the swiss army knife of IM clients - does em all. Maybe doesn't offer all the features of say MSNM, but it's just so damn handy to be able to do every kind of messaging from the one app.

MSN for me. It actually works with an email address that's not even working anymore. After I changed ISP and lost their email account I tought I'd have to change the email, but no it just keeps on working 8)
