Feeling chatty?

MSN used to be my main one. Nowadays I think more people are talking to me over FB chat or Google Chat/Jabber (which hooks up to andrew@ducker.org.uk).

Ah, I do need the voice calls (wife in the US and many business colleagues use it for conference calling).

And it's good at what it does, but I loathe its lack of integration. The only ways to get it into pidgin I saw were very hacky and unreliable, plus, then (of course), it doesn't actually take voice calls. Guh. Bloody proprietary protocols.
