Kool IM : Online IM, Web Messenger like Meebo & e-messenger
Kool IM (http://www.koolim.com/) is an all new web based instant messaging service. Though in Alpha stage it supports 6 instant messaging services all together - AIM, MSN, Yahoo!, Google Talk, ICQ and apart from all that jabber. AJAX is used in the application very well and Kool IM hardly have any known problem. It has a registration option which enable to take advantage of saving and managing user’s network accounts and more. Meebo and e-messenger were the two most popular web based IM services which are ruling from last few months.
Meebo and e-messenger in recent months have developed a new problem of banishment in some schools and colleges by authorities in order stop children from using Instant messaging. Well, Kool IM can be a great solution for them ;) . A support forum and a blog is also available. As per what I checked, Kool IM is supported on Internet Explorer 6, Firefox 1.5.0.4 and Opera 9.0 .
Instant Messaging directly out of the browser using AJAX based technology. Consumers and Business users alive will have the capabilities to hold real-time conversations with friends and co-workers. KoolIM is a generic IM solution, the initial version will support access to 12 IM networks and 4 Content Channels.

Meebo works perfectly well with ICQ as far as I know.

Meebo and ebuddy/E-messenger both support ICQ! You should know that ICQ belongs to AIM, and both use nearly the same protocol. So you just have to login with your ICQ Number as Screen-name! You can even have AIM Buddys in your ICQ contact list.

Which one of the messengers out there do you guys like? i like meebo because it is embedded, but i kind of prefer koolio because its a popup and easier for me to navigate around while working.
