The Best way to learn about IM’s is to try them out, until you find your fit.

Good luck

So here I am, needing an instant messaging service & figuring there has to be a better way than AIM.
Saw the post on accessing a bunch of IM’s thru Jabber. Just wondering if it works ok. I like the overall idea of Jabber as well.
Also, tried to get to IM Basics in BBB, but it was having a bad day. Anywhere else I can go to get the basics?
That’s the beginnings of my questions. Thanks!
