The Gadu-Gadu instant messenging

Gadu-Gadu uses its own proprietary protocol. As with ICQ, users are identified by unique serial numbers. Protocol's features include status messages, file sharing, and VoIP. Users may format and embed images in messages. Since client version 6.0, an experimental secure connection[vague] mode can be used.

The official client provides over 150 emoticons, allows grouping contacts, sending SMS and integrates with other services ran by the same company: a virtual Internet dial-up, a social networking site MojaGeneracja.pl and an internet radio Open.fm. Because of this, many users consider newer versions bloatware, so the older versions are still common.

Gadu-Gadu allows its users to add personal information to a "public directory", available publicly to search.

Many unofficial plugins have been created to expand its capabilities.
