I've been using Pidgin forever: gmail, aim, msn, icq... what not. Same thing.
and I used Skype for a while, with webcam... then it got boring too :( |
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 :p |

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 ing 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. |

I used to be addicted to IM. Nowadays I can't even remember when I stopped using it. Perhaps, part of the reason is switching computers and not having it start automatically... 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? |

It's just a different medium of contacting people. :conf:
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. |
