Pidgin? Gonna check that out.

As for Skype, I used that at work for a while... but it resembles a phone so much that I feel like using it exactly the same way I use a regular phone

I'm a Gemini. Technically, all the signs are off by one at this point (since the horoscope was invented, the galaxy has rotated enough that we're off). I don't generally believe in horoscope, but I can't help but agree with one of my roommates that all Gemini we know (including myself) are fucking nuts.
Myself, I can't sit still, always look for something fun to do even if I'm passing out from being tired, always have to be everywhere at once and experience everything/life to the fullest. Oh, and I never shut up.

I've been using miranda IM for ages. Pidgin looks pretty nice. Does it support sending voice like live messenger (ick) or hotkeys to show/hide the clist or open messages?
hotkeys FTW

I pretty much keep MSN open as habit and to get alerts when I receive emails.

Used to have tons of contacts, now I have four, two of which i barely ever talk to.

But even so, I have lost interest in IM. Especially now that there's Facebook, although that's also becoming boring... Anyone else feel the same?

+1

It's just a different medium of contacting people.

I actually prefer it in most cases since I'm usually talking to 5 people at once. I use adium right now (which is Pidgin for Mac). I used to run aim and msn at the same time, but that made me pull my hair out. I love how organized Adium is since you can rename people/divide them into groups.

IM comes in handy for me. I'm too lazy to use email to communicate.
