I have used AIM in the past. It's plus side is that when you are logged in you can see who else from your contacts are logged in and can istantly communicate with them. So if you are looking for someone to chat with you can easily see who is not busy...but the down side is if you don't really want to chat with someone that can see you are online, you are kind of stuck.
I think IM refernce is a really valuable service to offer. I thought it was interesting that in the list of all the libraries offering this service Illinois has the most libraries! If possible, we should add gtalk to our trillion account.
My favorite part of Thing #6 was the list Lynn made available of the AIM acronym dictionary - very informative and useful. GTG

Unfortunately, Trillian doesn't support googletalk. When we re-do the website (and maybe before) we will spread meebo chat windows around, it supports them all.
