GAIM

Those of you that want a multi-IM client for windows, but are sick of Trillian, and yet, too wussy to switch to Jabber will be happy to know that there is a win32 executable of the latest GAIM alpha 0.60.0.

I only wish there was a better Jabber plugin for GAIM. The current one doesn’t even let you connect to a different server, which of course defeats the purpose of Jabber entirely, rendering it useless.

GAIM *does* let you choose your Jabber server: http://gaim.sourceforge.net…

Yeah, GAIM’s not a bad client. The only reason I don’t use it as my personal client is I have a distaste for the default look of Gtk+. I presume it’s more customisable than it lets on, just that the default look of Qt I get with Psi is above and beyond the default look of Gtk+ I get with GAIM.

Then again I’m not after it for its AIM support, since AIM and MSN appear to be fairly stable via transports anyway. At least that’s what my bot says. :-)

Thanks! Your comment has been submitted and will appear shortly.
