Pidgin is one of the most powerful universal chat clients which supports over 15 chat networks including MSN, Yahoo!, GTalk & AIM. One of the reasons why I think its extremely powerful is because of it’s support for Windows, Linux/UNIX, Ubuntu & Mac OS X. Another cool feature that Pidgin provides is that it lets you know about all your friends who are appearing offline :D. So, it won’t let your friends hide from you.
Complete list of Pidgin supported chat networks:
- AIM
- Bonjour
- Gadu-Gadu
- Google Talk
- Groupwise
- ICQ
- IRC
- MSN
- MySpaceIM
- SILC
- SIMPLE
- Sametime
- XMPP
- Yahoo!
- Zephyr
Kmess:
If you are looking for a messenger for MSN support only, you should try Kmess which is easier to use and looks more like Windows Live Messenger.
