Just like e-mail I am sure everyone has multiple IM accounts. I have a few accounts on AOL, MSN, Yahoo . It was always a headache to open all the IM windows individually.
I use GAIM a open source IM client consolidator from http://gaim.sourceforge.net.
I know people use other software like Trillian , but I am happy with GAIM.
