Do you not use AIM because you truly don't like it, or because you want to say you're l33t?

I use it. It's the only chat program I actively use. If that makes me lame, then so be it...

because I %!!#^!# hate AIM. ICQ = better, but the stupid ads suck ass, so I don't use either.

I use ICQ, and have ever since it's beginnings (Even when they was Alpha testing it to make sure it even worked)

You can skin it.... it's called using WinXP. It logs with any of the number of addons, which also happen to remove ads.

I use whichever clients the people I'm talking to are using. For me, that's MSN and AIM, and consolidated by using Trillian.

I like Trillian's auto-logging. It logs every conversation without my having to do anything. Lets me talk with the people I know on MSN too, which is nice.

i decided that i hate instant messaging. i guess i'm just not big on chitchat anymore, and when people constantly msg me it can get annoying. i also have received advertisements, chain letters, and every other "boon of the Internet" while instant messaging. for a long time, i left my IM client connected with myself set to "hidden" but after while realized i may as well not even have it installed.

if you need to reach me, i have email. :)

I use AIM with AIM+. I don't know anyone that uses ICQ that doesn't have AIM. And with AIM+, there's no ads and it keeps a history. I don't care about skinning AIM. Winamp and Windows is enough.

My question, though, is what's the difference between AIM+ and DeadAIM, if there is? Are they just two programs that more or less do the same thing?
