Title:
  "About Me" Instant Messaging options should be updated

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  At the moment the options for Instant Messaging are:

  Jabber
  Yahoo
  MSN
  AIM/iChat
  ICQ
  Groupwise

  I tried to look up some hard statistics on IM protocols, but all I
  found was the information on this page:

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant_messaging#User_base

  Facebook and Skype have the most users in the world so it would make
  sense to include them in the list of protocols :)

  Even Google Talk might be a good one to add too.

  If we add these extra protocols in, we'll have a lot of things that
  will create clutter. A better UI design could be to have a dropdown
  list for the protocol, and then a field for the username. We could
  have a little + button to add another line, where you could select
  another protocol and another username.

  This way we can cover more protocols with less clutter in the UI :)
