Digsby Beta (build 79)

dotSyntax - (Freeware)

Forget about opening multiple windows on the desktop to be able to discuss with contacts from Yahoo Messenger, MSN, Google Talk with Digsby, a multi-protocol instant messaging software.

Digsby is an all-in-one email software that allows to both manage the email accounts (POP3, IMAP, Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo Mail and AOL / AIM), the instant messaging (MSN, Yahoo, ICQ , Google Talk, etc..) and Facebook, MySpace and Twitter profiles. Using a tabbed window, it allows you to open multiple conversations at once.

With a user-friendly and customizable interface user can chat with his favorite contacts but also consult wink emails, alerts and events in the social network (invitations, updates, etc..). In addition, Digsby offers a widget, which, once installed on a website, the owner can communicate directly with his visitors.

It allows to merge different IM addresses all the contacts so user do not have only one contact per individual.

For this part, it allows user to be alerted to the arrival of an email (it even shows a preview) on any of his accounts and can be accessed by clicking Digsby username you automatically.

The application also allows user to manage his status on different social networks, be warned of the arrival of requests or messages and even monitor the activity of his friends and update their spaces.

This software offers many customization options, allowing to change the theme of the interface, the skin, configure the notification system to change the display of contacts and more.

# Major Changes
* Spell Check: We expanded spell check to support over 50 languages instead of just English. The next phase of this project will include translating the actual Digsby client into different languages.
* Facebook Chat: Our Facebook Chat implementation will now connect to a new set of Facebook XMPP servers that should be much more stable than the HTTP servers we currently connect to. These servers also report your entire buddy list instead of just online buddies.
* Facebook Login: We switched Facebook Newsfeed and Facebook Chat login over to OAuth 2.0, which is a much more streamlined method for requesting permissions that Facebook announced at their last F8 conference.
* Twitter Achievements: We added achievements to Twitter (previously only on Facebook and MySpace). You will be asked if you would like to enable or disable this functionality and you can turn it on/off by editing your Twitter account in Preferences.
* Gtalk disconnect: We fixed a major bug in Google Talk that caused it to constantly disconnect if you have an iTeleport user on your buddy list.
