BeeNut
« on: June 20, 2005, 09:55 AM »
BeeNut is a multi-protocol instant messenger for Windows platform. It is compatible with MSN Messenger, Yahoo Messenger (Y!), AOL Instant Messenger, ICQ, and QQ. The free chat client makes your chat all in one free chat platform and BeeNut users can log in to multiple accounts on multiple IM networks simultaneously. This means that you can be free chatting with friends on MSN Messenger, talking to a friend on Yahoo Messenger, while searching for an ICQ chat buddy all at the same time.

This type of software has become a dime a dozen.  Still, everyone should use something like this.  Personally, I use Gaim.  What do you think makes this one stand out above all the others like it?

I can't speak for any others, but Gaim and Trillian both do.

Indeed you can.  I don't use Trillian anymore, but in Gaim, you go to Tools, then Accounts.  Click Add, then choose IRC from the protocol box.  Then you fill in your screen name, an efnet server (irc.choopa.net, for example), your alias and any of the other options you want to set.  After that, connect with the accounts dialog, then in the main window, click buddies, join a chat, choose your IRC connection and enter #donationcoder in the channel box.  Easy, no?
