ICQ is so crappy, its a shame too because I love AIM, and AOL could make ICQ so much better, but it's not, it's pile of dirty shit. Hell I even uninstalled it because it was so shitty. Well now I use pidgin.im and I'll say its 100% easier to use...
Things I like over ICQ about it:
- Alias, no longer do you need to remember whos number is whos, and what names are whos since they change them so much, give an Alias and it stays as that to you.
- No problems with people sending me links or sending links to people that arn't on my list.
and soon to be many more!
