This must be an old article, but What’s App is clearly a top 3 app.

You forgot eBuddy, this post might not be dated but eBuddy is the best IM app so far, it’s simple and has everything.

There is an application with a little different twist. It is called BleepU, uses push notifications and it is an instant messanger in a lateral sense of the term. It is built to allow users to send in the fastest possible way standard messages, those of the kind “I miss you”, “I’m running late” … It uses phone numnber (so no login friendship requests and so on) and icons.
I think this in an interesting point of view of what an instant messaging application is.

I’ve been a long time Blackberry user and just switched to iPhone. I travel a lot overseas and my colleagues and I use Blackberry Messenger almost exclusively to communicate as mobile phone calls and text messages are too costly. I see that Beejive has an app for both BB and iPhone and that it has Push capability. The greatest concern I have is that the application needs to be running all of the time in order to receive messages day or night. Is this possible with Beejive? Basically I want an app that performs like a SMS text message would but would be using data instead of being billed as a SMS. Suggestions please!!

I have been a Blackberry user for several years and use Blackberry Messenger a lot, especially overseas, in place of text messages. I'm strongly considering switching to iPhone but that means a switch in my IM app. Any suggestions about what is closest to Blackberry Messenger which is always on and available to receive messages the same way SMS does?
