msn or aim? which is better
 

which do you think is better?

MSN for the simple reason all my family uses it, and AIm added addware to my computer when my wife installed it.

bah
 

screw them both, YIM > them both. 8)

Slayden I agree Bellsouth owns
fast and better then AOL AIM MSN ect....
also easyer to use and no BS

lol, ICQ for ever! or better yet, get trillian. it's got msn, icq, mirc and aim all in one. it's just confusing to configure....

Yes,

I use AIM for my IM's,i have the latest version (Well,the BETA of the latest version) -- I can go VOICE,i can talk encrypted,i can send messages to CELLE'S!!!

I think AIM is the BEST client of them all.......

I also run ICQ also.........(I like the storing of messages if the user isnt on with ICQ)

John :)

trillian > *...can have it all then

I have trillian 2.0, not bad at all.

MSN!
 

I love MSN. I use AIM the most. Trillian sucks.

I love MSN because of all the features. I remember once I was transferring a file, playing a game, and chatting with the same buddy at the same time. I also like the fact that you can change your nickname to anything you want it to be, much like ICQ.

I use AIM the most because... well, everyone uses AIM. I use it with DeadAIM, so the added functionality (tabbed IM windows, no ads, etc.) are a plus. And AIM doesn't install additional software unless you misread the instructions and told it to do so. The worst it's ever done was putting a few AOL icons on my desktop, which I promptly deleted. Oh yes, now you can send/receive ICQ messages with the latest version of AIM as well.

I hate Trillian because it rubs together all sorts of different chat clients while taking away their unique flair. What you get is sort of a muddy pile of goo, which crashes every five minutes. I used Trillian Pro for a while and trashed it after a week.

I have never used YIM though, but I think I should since my main email address if a Yahoo one :roll:

aim
 

aim will always own :x

I wouldn't know....when I chat it's normally with BitchX :roll:

n00b and i mean it :o

mm
 

I use AIM and YIM. AIM Only because alot of people have it.

YIM is AWSOME because i use it to play with my brother with voice chat on so we can talk, i also use the voice chat for friends i play with in EQ & in many other cases its great. + Its just like talking on the phone, only free.
Another reason is because its VERY easy and simple to send files to other people and quickly.
On top of that, its very simple detailed and fast, so it greatly reduces lag while playing EQ/ & other games that a normal IM server would. Basically no lag at all.

YIM- All the way baby.
:twisted:

I use a messanger for messaging. If I want to talk to someone, i'll use a phone. If I want to send text messages, i'll use a computer, not a phone. If i have a phone i'll just call them.

AIM will always lead, because it's straight to the point and simple.

Its easier to explain to someone how to play EQ by talking to them by voice, my being in PA and my brother being in Colorado, doesnt give my phone the erge to call him =)


AOL is also Straight to the point and simple, But I'll take cable Anyday over AOL :wink:
