Instant messenger lost its appeal?

| 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? |

I liked ICQ. Then everybody started using MSN, and neither my computer nor I got along with that program very well. I tried to use Odigo to fix that problem, but then Microsoft trying to dodge connections from other IM's or something.
I use Orkut just to stay in touch with friends and post in the nerdy communities, and I spend at most 10 minutes a week. |

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 :( |

Hm, that's a good point. But if I meet interesting people worth talking to, I'd rather go somewhere and talk, like hang out at a coffee shop and discuss whatever the hell comes to mind... |
