Client Based Messengers

Instant messaengers are program that connect to an instant messaging service and and allow conversations in realtime.

Most IM Clients offer a some basic abilties to detect whether people on their list of contacts are currently online and available to chat. This may be called a contact or buddy list.

Popular instant messaging services on the public Internet include Qnext, MSN Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger, Skype, Google Talk, .NET Messenger Service, Jabber, QQ, iChat and ICQ. These services owe many ideas to an older (and still popular) online chat medium known as Internet Relay Chat (IRC).

Trillian

My personal favorite isTrillian, it allows you to connect to MSN, ICQ, Y!, AIM and IRC all through one well designed client. A must have when everyone you know is using one client or another. Why limit yourself to one, when Trillian will do it all through one client.
