Remember when gchat was XMPP then Google fucked that right up?
Pepperidge Farms remembers.
I loved Trillian for being a messaging app that just integrated gchat, msn, ICQ, etc. I miss a unified messenger so much. I think it died when SMS became mainstream.
Pidgin?
That was my choice. I still have my purple config files with my chat history. Pointless now, but whatever.
I had ICQ, Aim, gchat, and yahoo all in one client. Those were the days.
Beeper?
Remember when Facebook had an XMPP bridge to their messenger?
