But which is better?, I think there is a winner over another but a number of strengths and weaknesses and we must also take into account what you are looking for the user since they all have the capacity to engage in a conversation simple and easy. For example Windows Live Messenger has a good variety of emoticons, winks and smiles and so has Yahoo Messenger.

As to the latter variety of features or feature Google Talk wins but loses ground when speaking followers of speed and low memory consumption, it follows a multi Pidgin instant messenger and Yahoo Messenger as the last which consumes around 80 more Megabytes, these comparisons were made with a single conversation window open.

To make video or voice calls, are all quite similar except that Pidgin lacks these features. The best behavior is in general Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger has some stability problems in cases such as video conferencing and a lot of memory, Google Talk is for a more specific sector where voice calls and videoconferencing are strong and leaves behind a little communication by traditional text messages, and finally this pidgin a system capable of connecting with 15 different IM networks, including Facebook.
