I'm not quite sure exactly what all you're saying here.
Create AOL chat account. Use default chat program that Diablo comes with. Free text messages for a few days then the new account expires. Can only receive not send messages this way.
Is this correct?
Are there any better alternatives than this?
My ideal set-up is just to use Pidgin for instant messages as well as phone texting since I like the look and I have Qwerty's excellent LED notification plug-in.
I believe you can use AOL (AIM) with pidgin

Okay.
Kind of goofy that AOL would keep changing your phone number like that.
So there's no Google voice trick or something else that can be done where I can send and receive both internet instant messages as well as cell phone texts through Pidgin?

AOL changes your number because they only have a fixed pool of numbers and they reassign them as needed

Thanks for the reply overfloat.
I thought maybe there was a way to use pidgin with a special, creative set up.
Like if someone calls, you have google voice forward it to gmail then Qwerty's LED plugin notifies you about the message then the message goes to gmail which then opens up google voice..... oh wait, I think I just lost my train of thought. *lol*
Kind of excited about epage's "The One Ring". Sounds like he's thinking outside the box. And I dig that!
One suggestion on the name though... I think it would sound a little bit better if you changed everything about it.

Yeah, maybe. But still, it makes you sound like more of a dork than what you probably already are.
