Do you know what is a freeware proprietary multiprotocol instant messaging application?

Put in a simple way, it is a one-stop instant messaging integrating the best known IM accounts such as Google talk, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, providing news feeds from Facebook, Twitter or Linkedin and supporting notifications from your e-mail account.

I find it highly useful in a sense that you don´t need to check all your accounts to find out if the person you want to talk to is connected somewhere, you don´t need to change your status in all IM accounts separately, you don´t need to enter your email to see if you have new messages and you don´t need to enter to Facebook to see what the news are.

I have tried Digsby and Trillian and personally prefer Digsby because it is simpler, doesn´t show offline contacts and is more user-friendly while managing your email and checking Facebook. The advantages of Trillian are in my opinion better design, integration of Skype and possibility of video conferences.
