I hope every member here know about trillian which is a messenger tool available for free at
http://www.ceruleanstudios.com. I was a big fan of GAIM earlier because I did not like the layout of trillian's older version. But just some days away i have downloded this new version for a try. And I was amazed to see the layout of trillian now. There are many more features also. I would like to know what other members say about it???? If u have not try it so far i will recommend it . |

Trillian 3 Pro kicks some serious...
it replaced my messenger needs for a while now, includes Webcamming with MSN which I frequently use as well. There is nothing better. |

Trillian 3 is awesome, but my laptop sucks hard, so it will barely run it.

Eh, I've tried Trillian multiple times (up to and including V.3), but I don't like it. The chat program I use most nowadays is mIRC, and Trillian does not have a good IRC module. And I don't want to pay for the 'good' Message History interface (I'm online a lot and chat logs get horrendously long when they're just in one file.) and e-mail notifications when it's already free with the regular programs. V.3 is quite obviously the best Trillian so far though. Maybe I'll switch over in a few versions if they make the history and notifications available on Basic.

If somebody just has to have a multi-client messenger program, I'd recommend Trillian 3 over Gaim. I hate Gaim's user interface. It's too user-unfriendly. But if you are low on system resources and have to have one, then use Gaim.
If that makes sense. |

Dear friend I think u have not tested trillian seriously otherwise you would know that these two functions are already there in basic version. So go ahead... |

I don't think you read my entire post. I know that Trillian does log, but it logs into one file per account-to-recipient. I talk to my best friend several times a week. After a few months, the file gets very long. I also sit in some chats for days at a time. Extremely long after just a week. And still, it offers very few features for IRC, which is my main chat program now. As far as I know, there is little to nothing other than the basic chat. After looking at the site again, I realize that it does do Yahoo mail notifications, which means it could potentially replace YIM for me, but that's not enough to make me switch over. Although, part of it is me being stubborn and liking how each messenger has a different 'style', and it never can replace every feature of each system.
