Instant messaging can be very useful, but is somewhat let down by the reluctance of the various different companies to work together.
As a result, it is not possible to communicate with friends who use a different IM client to you...unless you use one of the new breed of clients like Gaim.
Gaim is compatible with AIM (Oscar and TOC protocols), ICQ, MSN Messenger, Yahoo!, IRC, Jabber, Gadu-Gadu, and Zephyr - you will still need to create an account with each service you wish to use, however.
Version 1.5 appears to be much more stable than previous releases, and it seems to have more success logging onto the various IM networks.
