We already support MySpace.  I have not heard of the other two.

We are already overloaded, with more to do than we have time to get to
in a reasonable time frame.  If you would like other protocols, these
will have to be developed as a 3rd party plugin, something that it is
entirely possible to do, and has, in fact, been done in the past.  The
Sametime protocol started out that way for example.
