Then my friend told me bout this digsby thing. Wow amazing, it's lightning fast, easy to setup, yet still beautiful and fashionable. I wonder when digsby can connect with friendster. Friendster is very popular in Asia. Almost 50% of my friends use friendster, the rest use facebook, linkedin, or combination among those three. I used pidgin at first.

I was thinking a bit how to improve some things by checking the features of another IM programs (names of programs are in brackets), and some my ideas :). Can you add visibility to contact, authorization options and option to remove myself from another user contact list (probably possible only for icq) to right-click on contact? (qip) I was writing this before, but anyway, can contact list automaticaly resize by number of contacts? (qip) Also for auhtorization state can be shown in contact list, next to contact name (qip). It will be nice to see which client is another user using (miranda). Very good feature is icq invisibility detection, with a choice to use anonymous detection for some clients or not anonymous, but for all clients (miranda). When contact is highlited, last message can be shown (miranda). Also, can there be some compact contact list mode? Contact list gets full easily and I cant see so many contacts without scrolling that I can in other IM clients. Thats why most people cant use mode with buddy picture or status displayed. Service icons can be shown next to each contact, but can there be option to automatic group contacts by services? For example locked ICQ group, locked MSN group, locked Facebook group ... Can there be more custom smiles groups to choose from? You can add some basic types, like Logan, Kolobok, Nova, Msn... Also, it would be nice to have option to use different set of smiles for different services. And last but not least, when there will be last.fm support, skype support, iconized icq xstatuses and support for some popular online chat sites or a template with some features where anybody can add his/hers favourite? Thanx :). Hi! I was thinking a bit how to improve some things by checking the features of another IM programs (names of programs are in brackets), and some my ideas :) .

Its still very good, the cpu ram usage was fixed and now uses less, how I notice one more thing which needs to be fixed. Infterface issues, like mine will get laggy and freeze when it types, when Im using just digsby even on 2Gb of ram with a good working computer. Interface issues and responsiveness needs to be fixed more. Things that need to be fixed for this to be the best Multi-protocol Im program: 1) Interface Responsiveness 2) All IM compatibility ( webcams for msn and yahoo, group chat etc....) 3)Lower CPU Usage 4) Display Containers for pictures if desired in chat window 5) Fix CPU spiking, been spiking on both of my computers and friends accounts, fix the spiking and Interface responsiveness and it should be perfect. 6)People with MSN, YAHOO, AIM, ICQ... etc and not digsby should be able to send you files and you should be able to accept them from you, not just digsby users sending files to others! Overall Goodjob! Well Ill say this, its much better now than it was last build.

This feature is very similar to twitterfox the twitter add on for firefox. It remembers which updates you've seen and has a little number indicating the most recent unseen posts. The number is reset whenever the feed panel is opened. With this feature I find it easier to pick up where I left off with the different networks. I do have a windows laptop and a mac laptop. It'd be nice to use digsby on both. Maybe a flex app? Any date at all yet for the mac version?

Adding LCS would be a great upgrade for me!
