    Just curious if anyone uses this program? I found it and actually like it as it gives me the ability to use the webcam for the IM chatting. Just wondered as I hear a lot about MSN Messenger, Adium, but haven't heard much about Mercury.
    Nope, don't have anything to do with the company, etc. but just wondered why there wasn't more said about this one...

    Until you mentioned this I did not realize that it exists. Gonna give it a try and see. Last update was in Dec of last year, wonder how it is being keeping up though.

    cheers ...

    if it only does MSN.. doesn't sound very useful...

    Adium is usually praised as number one because it does literally every IM network out there, not just 1.
