I used to be a big user of ICQ, however as spammers and advertising happened more and more, I flipped over to AIM. Only problem then was people were asking me what my MSN and Yahoo ids were. Argh! I don’t want a pile of instant messaging clients running on my machine.
Seeing Google’s endorsement of Trillian made me take the plunge.
I’m quite happy to announce that today I uninstalled ICQ and AIM and have adopted Trillian as my chat client for the PC.
I can now be reached via:
- ICQ at 5368391,
- AIM at MindPrint, and
- Yahoo! as ki4iit (my ham call sign).
Why not MSN? Because there’s no way I’m going to sign up for a Microsoft Passport. Evil.
