Instant Messengers
I noticed there are a few of you with messenger numbers/names listed - do you guys add each other and chat?
I just added mine to my profile - didn't even notice there was a spot for them!! I use Trillian Pro so I've got AOL, Yahoo!, IRC, MSN, and ICQ. Boo to Yahoo! though as everytime I log it on, some arse comes along and starts spamming me about something or another.

I've heard good things about Trillian. For me, just plain ol AIM is good enough for what I need. I have close to 200 ppl on my buddy list, and talk to maybe 30 of them
 I guess I just have some people on there for entertainment purposes (reading profiles and away messages). Sometimes you can find funny stuff on the internet doing that.I don't talk to anyone from here on AIM. I have also never used the chat room that is available here (doesn't work for me). I wouldn't mind, I am on the internet too much and sometimes get so bored I go look at eBay motors. Haha, its true, I am an internet junkie.

 200 people, WOW!!Out of the bunch of messenger programs in Trillian, I mostly use AIM, and MSN. Friends that have IRC never use it, and other people don't know how it works - so they WON'T use it ICQ I still have a few friends on - but most have gravitated towards using MSN. Yahoo! I almost always refuse to load, UNLESS for a specific purpose such as voice/video chatting with relatives.

Yeah, I guess they add up. I have 46 people on my list - but that's from all five IM programs in Trillian. Most of my contacts are people from a gaming clan I belong to, the rest is family.
