Yeah, once again the IM wars are on. I use AIM and it's been fun to watch AOL tweak their system to prevent Trillian from connecting and then the folks at Cerulean Studios put out a patch to let you connect again. I just hate it when I can't use Trillian because I love the features!
For those of you wondering how to get Trillian, go to

>>>I just download the Trillian Instant Messenger. Very cool. It combines the contacts for AOL, MS, ICQ, Yahoo and also IRC into one piece of software. Also it now allows my wife and I to have our IM's runing at the same time. With just MS IM we had to alternate.
"It is an important and popular fact that things are not always what they seem. For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much -- the wheel, New York, wars and so on -- whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man -- for precisely the same reasons." - Douglas Adams
