Well most people seemed to like it...
I think the mdk links are wrong, but sf is down (?) and I don't
remember what they are actually called.

<p>
Gaim
is
a
multi-protocol
instant
messaging
client
for
Linux,
BSD,
MacOS
X,
and
Windows.
It
is
compatible
with
AIM
(Oscar
and
TOC
protocols),
ICQ,
MSN
Messenger,
Yahoo,
IRC,
Jabber,
Gadu-Gadu,
and
Zephyr
networks.
</p>
<p>
Gaim
users
can
log
in
to
multiple
accounts
on
multiple
IM
networks
simultaneously.
This
means
that
you
can
be
chatting
with
friends
on
AOL
Instant
Messenger,
talking
to
a
friend
on
Yahoo
Messenger,
and
sitting
in
an
IRC
channel
all
at
the
same
time.
</p>
<p>
Gaim
supports
many
features
of
the
various
networks,
such
as
file
transfer
(coming
soon),
away
messages,
typing
notification,
and
MSN
window
closing
notification.
It
also
goes
beyond
that
and
provides
many
unique
features.
A
few
popular
features
are
Buddy
Pounces,
which
give
the
ability
to
notify
you,
send
a
message,
play
a
sound,
or
run
a
program
when
a
specific
buddy
goes
away,
signs
online,
or
returns
from
idle;
and
plugins,
consisting
of
text
replacement,
a
buddy
ticker,
extended
message
notification,
iconify
on
away,
and
more.
</p>
<p>
Gaim
runs
on
a
number
of
platforms,
including
Windows,
Linux,
and
<a

Qtopia
</a>
(Sharp

and

</p>
<p>
Gaim
integrates
well
with
GNOME
2
and
KDE
3.1's
system
tray,
as
well
as
Windows's
own
system
tray.
This
allows
you
to
work
with
gaim
without
requiring
the
buddy
list
window
to
be
up
at
all
times.
