   Some of my friends/coworkers/other people only use Yahoo. Some only use AIM. Some only use Google. Some only use Skype.

   It is for this reason that I have to go to other services like Trillian or Pidgin. If there were a way for Live Messenger to see all those different messenger contacts like Trillian and Pidgin do (and if you got rid of the annoying ads and popus when I first open the app) I might use Live Messenger. Too bad too because I'd like to show off this theme ;)

   Any chance we could see a messenger like this in the future?

   I'm an Amiga!

   Is anybody else with me?

   I miss the RAM disk, ARexx, icons of any size, proper device names, file names without extensions, dragable screens, programmable system wide data types, the ability to assign a device name to sub directory of some other device!  These were back in the days when OS's had to be efficient.

   Yeah, that's a great theme! Now I have the Product (RED) one along with the Halo 3, GTA IV with this new one.

   It would be a good idea to have a Windows Live Messenger capable of connecting with other people using Skype, Google Talk, AIM, but to avoid some complaints, it might be a good idea to develop an optionnal plugin, something that the people who really need it could download and this could add features to Windows Live Messenger.

   You know, like Messenger Plus! but with universal network connectivity.

   Microsoft could buy Trillian and Cerulean Studios, of course!

   No, just kidding...but maybe not ;-)

   Thanks, Brandon! Looking at AlterraLive's comments I see I'm not the only one. That would be impressive and certainly bring me back to Live Messenger because I personally like it's interface much better than Trillian or Pidgin's.

   Well, it might be a good idea to buy Cerulean Studios, they're making Trillian Astra and it looks big, the future IM messenger from Cerulean will works truly universal with numerous devices.

   Yeah sure... it's been in development for like 3 years.. ;) It's going to be the biggest bloat if it every ships...   check out Digsby.
