thats gona be awsome

 

Meh I never liked YIM.

I only like AIM and MSN.

 

that's pretty cool.. i never used yahoo messenger just MSN so doesn't affect me too much

 

That's cool..but plz..I hope they stick with msn smilies..I hate yahoo smilies so much..and AOL/AIM is just so damn ugly.... >_<

 

i agree with acid, but this i shall not download trillian is the best for me

 

This means YIM and MSN can message each other...?

 

wow that will be interesting!

 

yea they will be able to message each other, might take a little time to get it all worked out though

 

YIM sucks balls. Why merge? MSN is like, way better.

 

because theyre trying to take over AIM, when they combine they will have equal the number of people that AIM has right now

I hate AIM. I only have it because on Trillian, all the IM thingies are the same.

 

AIM has the most users but it is indeed the worst IM service out there: loaded with spyware, lack of features, loaded with ads. YIM is cool and so is MSN Messenger, they had to merge in order to keep up with AIM. I wonder where that leaves Google IM, probobly in the dust, userwise, functionally Google IM is awesome. Oh well, it doesn't matter to me because I use a wonderful program called GAIM, which is better than trillian because it is not a resource hog.

 

I love AIM, I hate msn personally so this doesn't really affect me.

 

I use trillian so it doesn't matter to me.
