I don't even know anyone using anything other than SMS and Facebook. Whatsapp, Wechat, Groupme, all seem fairly dead in my circle. Hangouts killed google chat. AIM & MSN have been dead for years.

Wechat is insanely popular amongst Chinese users, including in the US. LINE is popular with mobile gamers, to coordinate guilds and such. (Oh, and of course players based in China can't use LINE, it's blocked by the Great Firewall. Wechat is not.)
