Playing a GAIM…
For quite a while, Gaim, my IM client, was crashing on me… I don’t know what it was, but my whole system kept locking up on me. So, I tried the latest version, 0.67, and it is amazing. It has a new look from older versions of the software and some little features that are really nice. In addition to tabbed conversations, it also can have the status icons from the buddy list right on the tabs. You could keep your buddy list minimized and know which of the folks you are talking to are away/idle/unavailable…
You can pick up a copy at http://gaim.sourceforge.net. And don’t worry if you are running Windows, there is a Windows port that also works very well.
