Now if only I could actually get into the test program. I use several instant messenger clients and got sick of how bloated each client got. Running them all at once ended up being quite a load on the system for simple instant messengers. I've been using Pidgin recently and it's nice, but it's too far on the other extreme of being too simplistic. Miranda has more extensibility, but seems too unrefined to me. Trillian before was just plain bad if you ask me, but I'm hoping Astra will finally be the perfect solution. I sent my name in as a tester when it was first announced but never got in. I hope someday we'll all actually get to use it. It seems like it's been forever.
