		<description>Check out www.meebo.com.  It&#039;s a website that combines different instant messenging services together.  Definitely not where it needs to be, but at least someone is trying.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t understand the IM companies. If they work sharing a common protocol, people would use it like crazy and the IM companies could include some advertising into their own IM product and make a gazillion dollars. I&#039;ve never understood why that hasn&#039;t happened yet. It is so odd that they wouldn&#039;t do whatever possible to increase ad revenue.</description>
