In the world of IM programs, what are you?
A starter: One who initiates a conversation.
or
A sleeper: One who only talks when others start a conversation.
On the whole, I'm a sleeper. Apart from one or two people, it's usually the other person first to say "hey".

On irc im a starter, but not on msn...I get bored of the people on msn, because I see them during the day anyway, so they have nothing new to tell me...

definately the sleeper on msn.. mainly because I'm bombarded by people asking questions and don't get the time to start my own. (lol so that's an exaggeration, but it's a factor at least). On IRC I do tend to randomly say something completely off-topic tho.

Sleeper. Basically everywhere. If you don't have something to say to me, is there any use in me trying to get you to say something to me?

Sleeper, I start with the admins mostly. But other than that, I'm a sleeper because I feel I'll annoy someone if I talk to them.

I'm a sleeper without a doubt

Big time sleeper here. I only start convos if i have something useful to say, simply because, my contact list is too huge to remind every one on it that i am still alive. There are a few people with who i instantly start convos upon their login, but i mostly just leave Trillian running in the bg and get busy with something else....

It's hard to say and depends on the situation, but I'm probably 60% starter and 40% sleeper.

Oh and there are those types where people start chatting and then stop and stay silent.
We shall call these Dreamers! Can't remember anyone off the top of my head who's like that though.
