Nice software. Voice messaging is a great feature that must be included in every instant messaging software. Due to its absence moset of people are forced to run skype simultaneously.

Moreover it happens too offen to me that i need not only voice chat but also ability to remote control PC or show my desktop to explain person some tech details or make a presentation.
For this purpose
I use Ammyy Admin http://www.ammyy.com
or teamwiever http://www.teamwiever.com

The first works without installation and registration, the latter seems to have more features but has certain non-commercial limitations which annoy a lot.

Pidgin is a great instant messenger. The only thing missing is the ability to use voice messaging. I do hope it will be added in the near future.

I looked for awhile for something like this, and no other application I found could connect me to all of the chats I wanted to be in at the same time. It's a great way to keep in touch with all my friends on different IM clients in one central location. The biggest thing that set it apart for me is that you can not only connect to all the major IM clients, but to Facebook, GoogleTalk and IRC as well.

I love this app. You know it's awesome if it's included in Linux Mint.

Liked the program a lot, but did not like the fact that my account information including passwords were stored in a plain text file.
