<h1>Instant Messaging on SDF</h1>
<p>
On SDF you can use nearly all of the popular instant messaging
protocols via fast and efficient text clients. Many users have set
up scripts so that they can use various IM clients via their computers
or wireless devices such as two way pagers, blackberry, palm pilots and
cellphones, and you can too.
</p>
<p>Some of the clients listed in this page are able to connect simultaneusly
to various IM networks as <e>centerim</e> and <e>finch</e> (which is purple/pidgin based).
Links are provided to web pages with detailed steps to connect to the
various IM networks using the available clients at SDF</p>
<p>Also, some clients are not very actively maintained, so may not be able
to connect to the networks they claim are able to connec to, your best bet
are <e>centerim</e> and <e>finch</e>.</p>
<h2>Available clients</h2>
