It's been my preferred method of keeping in touch ever since I first got it some ten years ago. It's become a very polished app and difficult to fault.
I reluctantly downgraded to Skype when the pop-ups telling me to do so became too annoying. I've never liked Skype, and stupid things like the lack of email integration really bugs me. I can't even figure out how to have multiple conversations going
