AIM 6.9

I find one of the few things Pigeon does better than everybody else is handle multiple IM's. It has a tabbed system, however if somebody messages you their name on the tab turns blue, and you just press Ctrl + Tab once to bring you directly to the tabs with unread messages in them in order. Also when somebody is typing their name turns green. You can also drag tabs out of the window to form their own window. No other application has this many features, and the features don't make it any more complicated at all, if not simpler depending on your preferences.

EDIT: Having them on the side or on top makes no difference, you're simple just USED to having them on the side and I bet within a few days or a week or so, you'll be fine with them on top. When I switched operating systems it annoyed the hell out of me having what you would know as the start menu on the top rather than the bottom, I got used to it and now it pisses me off when I use Windows and it's on the bottom, and I'm unable to switch that around.
