Technology MSN and Yahoo to Merge Messengers

The companies will connect their IM networks so users on each can communicate with one another using text and voice chat free of charge.

...

Microsoft is also reported to be in talks with Time Warner, and a deal to open the door between MSN Messenger and AIM has been rumored. However, nothing concrete has come from the discussions thus far.

i hope they all just freaken merge, i'm tired of using gaim for my ICQ, AIM, Yahoo, and MSN and not be able 2 do everything that is usually done with the original program...

There are programs that let you merge the two now though, but they are kinda shitty programs I think. lol. It's probably a smart move for Yahoo and AIM to do though seeing as most people seem to have a preference for msn.

Good news. If MSN does merge with aim too, Trillian might have problems.
