I was a Miranda fan myself. Simple, clean native windows UI. Alternately, Winphone 7 had great twitter/fb integration for contacts, feed, and IM. I'd love to see somebody make that happen again.
Franz is the closest I've seen to that recently: http://www.meetfranz.com/. It supports Slack, WhatsApp, WeChat, HipChat, Facebook Messenger, Telegram, Google Hangouts, GroupMe, Skype amongst others.

What's the value of it though? It's just a bunch of webviews. I can accomplish the same with opening the web versions in my browser.
Not having to navigate to the browser, no fear of accidentally closing the browser, no tracking cookies set in the browser, native notifications.
Our computers must think we're absolutely insane. If they could think.
