  About Pidgin
Pidgin (aka Gaim) is a multi-protocol instant messenger client for Unix, Linux, and Windows.
 
Pidgin (previously known as Gaim) is a GTK2-based instant messenger application. It supports multiple protocols via modules, including AIM, ICQ, Yahoo!, MSN, Jabber, IRC, Napster, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, SILC, Rendezvous, Trepia and Zephyr. It has many common features found in other clients, as well as many unique features that other clients do not have.

Pidgin is core/UI split, which means in the near future, developers will be able to use the Pidgin backend in their own products with their own user interface.
