Announced last October, Canadian users of the Yahoo! and MSN instant messengers will now be able to communicate with each other. They call it interoperability and interested IMers in Canada can sign up for the beta test software at ca.messenger.yahoo.com or ideas.live.com.
For the past six months I've been using Gaim to communicate with YIM, MSN and GTalk users with a single slick client. The catch is you have to have accounts with each platform, but you can run this thing on Windows or Linux. I, for one, welcome this new interoperability and I'm grateful for the opportunity to write and say interoperability as often as possible.
