Big News: Adium Hits the Big 1.0

Maybe I've been out of the loop since August, but iChat supports Google Talk now? Hmm..

Well, I'm all settled into Adium, so I think I'll stay.

Hey VR, why do we have to call you?!
iChat has been doing MSN, Jabber, G Talk since jabber came along in version 3. All at the same time.

Why are you asking for AIM support?
That is what iChat is using.

I'm an Adium user, but iChat works fine with google talk, jabber (google talk is just jabber anyway), and aim.

I like the tabs, I like the better group chat support, and I like the far more extensive configuration options. Most of the mac users at my company, though, use iChat to connect to our jabber server.

I love adium, finally file transfers are working. I wish it could support skype (that's the only service left I need it to have). And voice/video of course.

11. and I would still rather use iChat

Better interface, Video Conferencing, built by Apple, etc

iChat > Adium

As soon as you get iChat to work with MSN, you call me - OK?

And for that matter, Y!, G Talk, Jabber, and of course AIM.

I can use Adium for 4 different networks, simultaneously.

And I have been using 1.0 in beta for many months now, and it has been awesome. Congrats on the 1.0!!!

I'm a Mac geek supporting hundreds of PC users. While all of you get your knickers in a tizzle comparing it to all you love about iChat, I'm comparing it to GAIM on the Windows platform, and am VERY thankful for all the hard work that has gone into this application -- it's one more thing that absolutely shuts up my WinBigot friends when they see what the love and dedication to the Mac platform has wrought. They have my thanks and adoration!

Awesome! Adium is a great app and many thanks to all the developers involved!

Adium will get voice and video when libgaim supports it. Currently both are planned for Gaim's 3.0 release, which is a while off yet since they're still getting to 2.0.

And @ molecule
You do know you can change Adium's interface to just about anything don't you?

I still wish there was video confrencing. But hey, that is life. Hopefully we shall get it soon. Babysteps
