My friend and I still use AIM everyday. We don't know why people left! Especially with Macs, there's no excuse if you're already using Messages to send texts.

I never got into Google Talk. Too many of the people in my contacts list were either work connections or college acquaintances. And I loathe Facebook so f#ck FB Chat.

In the US, people left in favor of SMS, which was available on mobile phones long before AIM was.
