What IM client you using? Give this one a try, Digsby!

[MyCult]

I was using Pidgin instead of MSN so i could have all contacts in one client (ICQ, MSN, YAHOO etc). I also have a number of different emails accounts a twitter page and other social networky type jobs. Would of been good to have all of then in one MSN/ Pidgin styley app. That'd be digsby. Started using it today, it's beta so it's not bugless but I am sold!

Worth a look if you not already heard of it.

But does it support webcams or VoIP?
I'm on Carrier, which is a user-driven fork of Pidgin. http://funpidgin.sourceforge.net/

There's a Star Wars joke here somewhere. Something about joining the Dark Side?
Might I recommend Carrier or Pidgin?
