One View for your IMs

There are many IM clients out there.  How to manage?  I used to run the native software for each.  Too many interfaces.

I gave Digsby a try.  I notice some slowdowns… did some investigation.  Appears I had my settings to share my laptop as found by PC mag.… good for research … not good for my IM client. 

I’m currently trying Astra Trillian which scales from a simple multi-service IM client into a destination to manage and interact with e-mail, social networks, adn photo sharing. Of course, it's also a slick, modern gateway to instant messaging, and supports the most services of any client.  Trillian (free, or $25 for Pro version) has 250 features, giving Digsby and Meebo a run for its money.
