Thought:
Though for workplace only, it is a good start. Wish they will expand it to allow communicating between different networks. Wait, where is ICQ?!

    there used to be a program that incorporated all ICQ, MSN and Yahoo Messenger lists into one program. It was called Trillian i think.

    No, the "integrate" here means from a network can send message to another different network.
    Example: From MSN messenger send message to Yahoo messenger.

    Trillian is a software which allow you to connect different IM networks but not communicate in between them.
