Pidgin

Pidgin is the Internet Messaging software that I'm using on my linux box. It works under Windows, and supports all of the IM protocols, so you need only run one program to talk to various people under different systems, such as AIM, and Yahoo.

I used to run Gaim, but that was way back during the Fedora Core 4 years. Pidgin is the upgrade.

W² showed some interest in Linux, so I'll post about interesting features that I find. For instance, here is an article that points out just how evil Microsoft's EULA is.

As an unknown feature, since I joined google chat, when people I know who have gmail accounts log in, they show up on my IM screen. That seems a bit presumptuous to me because I may not like them! Furthermore, They may not like me either!
