Network management Toolkit
Story: Why MSN and Yahoo joined forces against Google
It's called Trillian and has been around for ages.
They already allow you to use any chat network in one client (although you still need accounts on each service).
However i cant see MSN actually gaining much from this.
i cant really say how many people use YIM. it certainly cant be that many, i am a user of it and i know of one other person who uses it, no one else, they all use MSN. ICQ (i used this permanently for 5 years and used nothing else, now i dont EVER use it and i use Gtalk or MSN) has basically died, everyone moved to msn, AIM (and its crap) no one uses they are all on MSN. MSN is one of the worst networks. YOU CANT DO OFFLINE MESSAGING!! ICQ HAS HAD THIS ENABLED FOR 10 years!!
MSN GET OFFLINE MESSAGING WORKING!!
