By happy happenstance, I just met with the CEO of a new startup called meebo. (See www.meebo.com.) It's a new implementation which allows you to access up to 4 different IMs simultaneously, using only a web-browser.
It's not dependent on Java the way the other "web based" solutions are, so you don't have to have a Java VM installed. It's perfect if you, like me, can't download IMs onto work computers. FWIW, they don't collect logs of user traffic, etc. It's in alpha now, and it's free. Tried it a few minutes ago, and it seems to work quite well.
Check it out.

That's very cool.
Of course it begs the question begged by so many cool start-ups in 1999... how exactly do they intend to make money?
