Years ago we all used ICQ and would even have it on while chatting on IRC. And while download.com shows ICQ has the most downloads, it seems the new ICQ ain't worth the bytes to download - larger memory with fewer features etc. - and all versions released, after being bought by AOL and no longer owned by Miribilis, have seen the software get worse and people switch to other IM.
So which one d'yall use?

P.S. Dien, how do you make a Poll? I clicked the Poll thing but it didn't give me any Options to let people choose from.

Hi Michael,
I don't use instant messaging software often. But it can be a useful tool, so I do use it from time to time with people I know... (Mainly with those who seem to refuse to write emails!)
When I do use IM, I use Trillian.

This is free software that lets you use multiple instant messaging programs simultaneously. That way, you don't really have to "choose" between them - instead, use them all!
Also, here's how to create a poll...

How To Create A Poll: You can create polls when you're starting a new thread. Click on the "New Thread" button. There, you can write your post to help introduce your poll. At the end of the page, you'll see a check box which says "Post a Poll", and you can select how many items you want in your poll. Check that box to post a poll. Then click the "Submit New Thread" button. The next pages will then prompt you to fill in the different options in your poll.
