    I've seen the others like Miranda and Pidgin or whatever, and I kept using Trillian. Its simple and easy to use, and has a cool transparency feature. However if you want to have Google Talk in Trillian, you have to go for Trillian Pro, which is $25, but it also has video chat functionality and other nifty features. For Google Talk though its much easier just to use it inside Gmail.
