IT's the best instrument for talking to friends when you're online.Because: *There is a sound to alert you when the window is minimized *ENTER (button) means send and not next line *You see when your friends are online (and hear) *I never had any form of trouble using it (everything works) *addresses automatically become links (no need to cut or copy) *the conversations are saveable (for later use of links etc.) *The window itself isn't ''messy'' (you don't get confused by all the commands) *You simply double-click the name, and <WHOOPS> ...there is the message-window. *It doesn't slow down the computer like ICQ does. *You actually SEE that the other person is typing a message(which means that you can choose to wait for the reply instead of writing like crazy, hoping he/she won't beat you to it, only to have to write it again because it didn't fit his/her next comment which you didn't know was coming! *and last but not least: You get notified when you have new e-mail (which means youdon't need a pop-server or an e-mail program. The only downside I can think of, is that the ''chat''-window's minimum size is too large. But that is just a minor detail since you can always hear an incoming new message when the window is minimized All in all: an excellent piece of software
