You're talking about AIM, right?  I try to use Jabber or Google Talk
whenever possible, but as of yet none of my friends have a clue what  
either
of those is.

Some kind of grassroots campaign to get people to switch to Gaim and  
Jabber
would be nice; the Firefox people seem to have been quite successful  
with
Spread Firefox.  I seem to remember something on Ross Burton's blog  
about a
Jabber advocacy site, but AFAIK nothing ever happened with that.

Cheers,
