which is the lightest instant messenger?

<< < (4/4)

f0dder:
Smileys should definitely be optional, and I'm glad that miranda (with default message shower, whatever :)) strips all the font+color crap from MSN. But a plugin updater would be a really nice core feature.

Gtalk works with msn and yahoo protocol?

Erm... Not that I'm aware of. I was just extending the original question to see if anyone knew of a really light IM client that supported GTalk. I've edited my post in an attempt to make that clearer.

Since Gtalk is based on Jabber, you can choose any client that support the Jabber protocol.

But since GTalk is all I use anymore, I don't know if there are any other lighter IM clients that I can use my GTalk friends list.

Here are the features I'd like:

1. GTalk friends list.
2. Ability to log chats.
3. Ability to send files.

Anything much more than that is unnecessary, in my opinion.-Deozaan (May 17, 2008, 07:36 PM)

in addition to the answer given by Mark0, here are some links i found pertaining to the above questions.

1. Client Choice with Google Talk
2. Why isn't there a Send Files option for some of my contacts?
3. Does Google log chats from Trillian Pro?
