maybe I can finally drop one, although with bitlbee it doesnt matter
much.  However I do see a shift towards more voice services being
commonplace.  Ebay and google are going to push them hard on people.
Yahoo has had a voice type chat for years.  As people become more
comfortable with it it may see a larger market share in front of the
curtain (VoIP has had a large marketshare behind the scenes for a
while ...).

The only problem I can see with this is that some of the people running
IM type networks dont always have good servers/bandwidth to support
everything they try to do.  That makes an impression to many of poor
quality, why many people say VoIP isnt ready for primetime all the while
not knowing that they prolly have talked on a VoIP call and not known
it.
