For the last 4 years or so ive been a ICQ user but have now got contacts on Windows messanger, so i want the all in one app.

I have seen trillian and it didnt inspire me.

Recomendation's who is using what......?

Regards,

BAH

I use Trillian but there's another program called Odigo that I think does some of the same stuff Trillian does.

odigo sux! one cool feature it has is the fact that you can post notes on sites and other odigo and Bt messanger users can see them, but the site owner cant! so... we all get Odigo and go to all the xp sites right and.... lol

i think it sucks because its not realtime like MSN (well almost) and using ICQ/AOLm and the rest is like chatting via SMS, where as MSN and yahoo messangers are like a chat room, even easy and quick to invite people in. Odigo would be good for keeping intouch with your ICQ buddies, but better still make them all get MSN hehe

ive not tried trillian.. might give it a go though, drew, you said you used it... but you where pretty suprised by there being a few of us in the same window wasnt you? kind of gives me an idea what trillian will be like....

Whenever you guys see me online I'm on via AIM, ICQ, MSN, and Yahoo all at the same time, running Trillian. The process is currently using 8,736KB of memory, is skinned, and doesn't have any ads. I could also be on IRC at the same time, but I don't spend a lot of time chatting real time.

See lou knows whats up..trillian kickes a**
:beer

-drew

Real time is like when I say "HI" you see it instantly....

Thanks for he input guys i tried Trillian but didnt like it so im back with ICQ & Messenger....

Not exactly what this thread is about - but if you regularly load AIM, MSMessenger, ICQ etc into the system tray - but then can't tell who is online for a chat - this link offers a pretty neat little app that will get the 'buddy list' from each and consolidate into one list:
h*tp://www.chime.tv/gui.shtml

Their other apps are prety kewl too.

LS

no need for the ht*p anymore just tick the box on below if your own webspace, leave it blank if its not your space.

Why did you dslike trillian...i findi it to be a nice program, that saves space memory..and just looks **** cool with those nice skins!
-drew

I just use the programs separate, then you get the best of all worlds (sorry for the clichés tonight, I’m tired )

But when you can have them all rolled into one using less memory..i would go fro it.
By the way...doesnt aim have issues with Xp?
-drew

did I see that same question some where else about aim???? errrr...No promblems here and never heard of any.
