Comments from those who selected Pidgin as one of their Top 10 Tools in 2007

  • For instant messaging, I use Pidgin (formerly Gaim). This is an open source application which allows you to view multiple IM accounts from several places in a single window. I use Google Talk, AIM, Yahoo, and MSN, and I'd hate to have that many windows open all the time. Pidgin simplifies that for me"  Christy Tucker
  • " I tend to IM across a number of different platforms and GAIM gives me the ability to access all of them, except Google Messenger. It also is portable, so again it rides on my jump drive."  Dennis Coxe
