Trillian was fun for about six months. I think it's fair for me to say that I have had a decent amount of experience with trillian. I'm not sure what it was, but AIM just suits me more. I really can't explain it. Perhaps it's the rediculous simplicity, but I simply prefer it.

With that said I might switch back to trill if AIM puts another ad in an IM window.
