I just thought a few minutes how that is supposed to work. I mean, the
only thing that they all have in common is that they are all about
comunication. But the rest of say IRC and ICQ is completly different.
For instance IRC is channel based with an unknown amount of users while
ICQ is contact based i.e. you have a permanent group of users in your
list. The most I can see that can be shared are a few widgets.

How does that Gnome app do that? And what´s its name. I´m curios now to
see some screenshots.
