Pidgin: All in one Instant Messaging

I've been using this great all-in-one messenger for quiet some time now. Its been useful for me so I think its time to give it some credit. Pidgin is a chat program which lets you log in to accounts on multiple chat networks simultaneously. This means that you can be chatting with friends on MSN, talking to a friend on Google Talk, and sitting in a Yahoo chat room all at the same time. Pidgin can run on multiple operating system such as Windows, Linux and UNIX.

Pidgin is also compatible with the following chat networks
AIM, ICQ, Jabber/XMPP, Bonjour, Gadu-Gadu, IRC, Novell GroupWise Messenger, QQ, Lotus Sametime, SILC, SIMPLE, MySpaceIM, and Zephyr.

And most of Pidgin is open source, free and contains no ads. So it means you can get Pidgin's code and revise it to suit your needs. If you want to extend its capabilities without changing the code, you can use several official and 3rd-party plugins such as Facebook IM (it rocks!) and Twitter protocol.

Try it for yourself! you can download it from pidgin download page.
