BitlBee

BitlBee is an instant messaging client. Unlike conventional client but BitlBee is a network gateway that the user claims to be a IRC server and the protocols AIM, ICQ, Yahoo! Messenger, XMPP and MSN knows. Outwardly BitlBee behaves like any other instant messenger, but the operation is crucial way: The user uses to communicate a common IRC client. It can connect to the various instant messaging networks via the BitlBee server. The user profile can be stored on the server permanently. The advantage of this model is that any IRC client can be used for instant messaging.
