Switched to GAIM

I'm trying to get control of the AIM situation I blogged about before. The final straw was when I discovered that the new AIM installed two memory hogging processes on my machine and didn't seem to close them when I signed off.

So now I'm using GAIM. Not only can I keep my AOL, Yahoo and MSN instant messengers in one app, but it's a lot less of a memory hog.

The only downside is I don't get to use some of the nice, graphical features offered by each.

Still, it's worth it.
