Setting up Digsby IM Client
Sep, 2008 (2008-09-07 16:55)
I checked out Digsby today. It’s an IM client that also does social networking (Twitter, Facebook, et al) and email (pop/imap/gmail/hotmail/etc).
The feature that really drew my attention was the ability to put a chat widget right on my website that allows visitors to see if I’m online and chat with me. Sure, these aren’t horribly uncommon now, but they set it up instantly and allow me to turn it on/off via my IM client. Spiffy.
Set up was easy enough. And there is a program for importing logs from trillian, pidgin, and others.
Yay!
The only difficulty I had was finding my gaim logs, which were stored in c:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\.purple\logs. “.purple”?? What the heck. But that’s solved now.
