Personally I like the free long distance voice feature on Skype but the majority of my industry contacts are currently on ICQ.

In terms of IM communication both ICQ and Skype equally serve the same function :thumbsup

ICQ has a pretty good voice chat

I changed my sound scheme. No more uh oh's. Now I get a bored sounding sheep. :)

I have both Skype and ICQ and I have noticed more people adding me to Skype however, I think ICQ will be a necessary evil for a long time to come still.

This thread got me thinking. I think I'm going to start migrating over to skype or use them both.

I have both Skype and Icq as well. Hone turned me onto Skype, like it a lot:thumbsup Still need icq though, have an old version of it 2003b, dont have too many issues with it. Dont want to install the new versions, too many horror stories:2 cents:

I'm not a big fan of MSN, maybe it was because for awhile you couldn't send offline msgs. But these days I prefer Skype. ICQ is fine, but I'd love if more people moved over to Skype.

Why not just use both. I don't understand the need to only use one IM program. With the exception of skype you can roll all of your messengers into one with a programs like trillian and pidgin.

I use both but it bogs down my system a little especially when I'm designing. I hate trillian I will check out pidgin never heard of it.

Skype is huge resource hog, but if you can only use it, it's not bad and does flippen everything.
