I'd add 2 reasons: 1. it slips past firewalls because it doesn't use the MSN, YahooIM etc ports that are often blocked by the institution's firewall. 2. it's way cooler than trying to handle all the services on your PC, even in a multi-service client. Contact me on Jabber at MSN: iangs1 ICQ: 198294569 or direct on Jabber: ian@jabber.dk I'm also using the <a href="http://psi.affinix.com/psi_docs/">Psi</a> client, btw<!-- X-spaminator-strike: whitelist, -3 --><!-- X-spaminator-passed: IP check --><!-- X-spaminator-passed: email check --><!-- X-spaminator-passed: author url --><!-- X-spaminator-passed: comment body --> I’d second Lambert’s vote for Jabber.

All your data is on the server - including gateways to other services like Yahoo, MSN, ICQ etc.; you can connect to the server from any device and with any software supporting the open, IETF-aknowledged Jabber-Standard. There's a pletora of Jabber-Software out there; I'm using Psi (http://psi.affinix.com/) wich is quiet nice.
