IM

[mindstalk]

So, someone gave me her AIM address recently, and I decided to dip into the weird world of IM. Conclusion: it sucks. E-mail: everyone has an address, and you can just mail them. IM: lots of different walled communities. Also, my first two name choices on AIM were taken -- what the hell? Did AOL do some sneaky import, or did someone steal my name?

Found a half-decent muti-protocol client, though, gaim, showing all my LJ friends as "offline" except for a couple who are "Not authorized".
