AIM

I added AOL Instant Messenger icon to my site today. I did have Yahoo Messenger on here, but I've had mega problems with it. It shows me signed on when I'm not, not signed on when I am. Lately I haven't even been able to sign on which is really screwing me up talking with my kids.

Now I'll try this and see how it works, and see if I can talk them into trying it. The yahoo's love Yahoo...what's with that?

Personally, MSN/Windows Messenger is my favorite. It comes built into XP, so everyone has a copy.

Although I have accounts on all the major chat services, I rarely use them. If I need yahoo or AOL or ICQ, I'll use Trillian to enable them all at once.

We tried Windows Messenger first since we both have Windows XP, but the webcam's didn't work well with Net Meeting or some such shit.

I have no clue what Trillian is, so I guess I'll do a Google search on that one.

I was just looking at that AIM Remote thingy yesterday (or the day before...?). So now I guess I'll wait and see what you have to say about it. Heh.

Yahoo! Msgr has some neat features that aim doesn't (more emoticons, file xfer, voice and cam functionality). That said, Yahoo! chat/msgr has major buggy issues that often make it a pain to use.
