As a young adult myself, I prefer MSN - on Pidgin. Keeps the annoying set from school from finding my screenname to IM me on pointless questions and keeps me in touch with the select few I actually care about - that use MSN anyways.

Although I never really "got" using mobile IM or SMS for that matter - I'd much rather take a call than deal with the hassle of pulling up the Mobile IM client, typing out three paragraphs on a 5 line, 49 key slide-out keyboard - then close that all out to go back to whatever my phone was doing at the time - then getting another message - th- UGH.

And I'm a WinMo owner - adding a touch more irony when I rely on email and voice only with the occasional Web browsing when I'm waiting around or tethering to an actual machine to IM or do actual work.]]>Mar 18th 2010 9:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/Mar 18th 2010 9:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/Mar 19th 2010 12:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/Mar 19th 2010 12:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/Mar 18th 2010 9:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/]]>Mar 18th 2010 9:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/microsofts-windows-live-messenger-phone-for-france-is-hardly-pi/
You would use a command set of sorts that the app could parse; ie, for an example, "SN editor@engadget.com MSG Hey, what's up?" would send a message to editor@engadget.com's MSN with the desired message. You'd just get an email back along the lines of "FROM editor@engadget.com MSG Not much, you?".
