Reviews

Google Talk beta

With an interface that lacks ads, the simple Google Talk beta dresses up its features by allowing you to leave and receive free voicemail messages, transfer files, and find out what music your buddies are tuning in to.
ICQ 5.04

Easy, free services make ICQ 5.04 a fine choice for voice, keyboard, or Webcam chats, but MSN Messenger 7.0 and Yahoo Messenger 7.0 offer more features.
Yahoo 360 (beta)

Although blogging is a major part of this service, Yahoo 360 is more of a social networking tool that bundles, perhaps, too many services together.
MSN Messenger 7.0

A fun and feature-packed IM applet, MSN Messenger 7.0 is a great upgrade for version 6.2 users, but we prefer the less intrusive Yahoo Messenger 6.0 and ICQ 4.1.
MSN Messenger 6.2

Intrusive registration process and fee-based add-ons keep us from warming up to this instant messenger.
