I use Windows Live Messenger. Its still in Beta but its much much better than the old MSN messenger. Much faster log ins and much better features. I tried google talk but i didnt like it much. I guess its too business like.  |

Not much features as well.
But I think they have a talk function now.

MSN. Nice clean design and I like how it's integrated with desktop. I don't want to be supporting MS so much, but MSN Messenger works for me.

I have used almost all the major IM like ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, GTalk and Trillian but I like Yahoo very much though I am no more using it. I have shifted everything to Google. GTalk is simple and looks very promissing |

Googletalk is starting to have more users now.
But it's a late comer in the IM market. Although google has a great reputation, I dont think they will win this one.

... remember when Google Lunched GMail. There were 100s of free webmail system available already but what google has done. I am sure that GTalk will come with something special.. and other IM will be in trouble. Google has already integrated Gtalk with GMail which is simply superb in my views |

Google is good at being a role-model for other companies. And other companies can't match up with their ideas.
For Example: Google Earth was bought from Keyhole which used to be a payed service. Google always sees to the users favour.

Kopete or Gaim. Both supports multiple protocols and have plugins support |

But I think it's probably going to replace email soon.
