What the heck IS ICQ anyway?

I see a fair amount of people still using this… messenger?

I hear it's so good, and you can use it with AIM, etc. I call BS.

I must have added a total of 8 different people - some of which also have AIM/MSN/YIM, (and I chat with them over that). I send them a message from AIM to their ICQ number, and they never respond. What is this bullcrap?

If ICQ is half as good as I hear, why the heck have I been unable to talk to them via AIM? I've noticed AIM allowing this for the longest time and It's never worked for me.

@ All you guys

Meh. Digsby acted weird after a while, trillian and pidgin are complete shit, and other than that, I'll just use ebuddy or some of the other online things. I always run into issues after using those programs. :/ I'm willing to give digsby another shot later on though. It was the best of all the ones I used.

Pidgin's MSN is shit. Rest of it's great, love the fact it also has IRC.
