Best replacement for MSN?

The IM feature for Skype is terrible. The interface for it sucks and running multiple convos sucks. I have zero interest in video or voice chatting. That is why I hated Skype. I used it for less then an hour before I got rid of it and downloaded Trillian. Hell you are talking to the same guy who still uses AIM. I also don't own a SmartPhone, I use my cheap 20 dollar prepaid phone.

I assume you didn't bother enabling separate chat windows for multiple convos?

Trillian has other advantages, I can also link it to my FB account. Which is handy. Maybe I should have started using Trillian sooner its great.
 
Between Steam and Facebook I don't think I've used any sort of IM since like 2007
 
I use Skype IM because that is what most ppl I know use. I don't any interest/need for voip or vid conferencing making Skype exclusively a IM program but it doesn't force either of the previous functions unwantedly upon you. Skype will play quite happily as a crappy IM program if you and your friends so choose. ;)

As a disclaimer, I don't use a smart phone either. Prepaid TracFone ftw!
