they live on another desktop. i leave them there. or another screen entirely.
if they want my attention they normally make use of things like the urgency
hint (so the window wobbles around). i dont' use pidgin but i do use xchat -
and it just stays open. i haven't use skype now for ages - when i did, i often
just left i on a dektop or iconified it.
