I noticed that you said OTR was an "encryption program" in the Instant
Messaging section. Encryption is part of OTR, but not all of OTR. OTR
provides authentication, deniability, encryption, and perfect forward
secrecy. I would rephrase it to say that OTR is a "instant message
security application." Just my two cents.
