Let's face it: most of us have more online accounts than we can control.
Email addresses, instant messaging clients, social networking sites… do you
really have time to catch up with all of them? If you don't, then you need
Digsby, a revolutionary all-in-one IM client with which you can handle all
your online contacts under the same interface, even if they belong to
different networks. OK, this is probably not that revolutionary, but the real
surprise comes when you realize you can also add your email accounts, no
matter if they're online or POP3 based, and also your personal profiles in
Facebook and MySpace. The result is that Digsby enables you to control pretty
much every aspect of your online social life in a very easy way. After
installing the program, you can start adding as many accounts as you want in
order to handle them from Digsby. This includes AIM, MSN, Yahoo!, Google
Talk, ICQ, Gmail, Yahoo! Mail, Hotmail, Facebook, MySpace and more. Despite
the amount of supported services, they're presented in a very clear,
uncluttered interface and organized in tabs. You'll be able to chat with your
buddies via IM and also check and organize your email without even having to
open your browser. Everything worked fine except for Facebook, which kept on
showing a "Connecting…" message though the widget was up and working on my
Facebook profile. My ICQ account didn't seem to respond either, but I guess
it's got something to do with the fact that Digsby is still in beta stage.
Digsby saves chat history, supports file transfer and features an extended
settings menu from which you can tweak the program's appearance and
performance. The only drawback I found, besides the Facebook connectivity
issue, was the lack of speed when starting the program and logging in. But
then again, it's well worth it. *With Digsby you'll be able to manage all
your online accounts for email, IM and social networks under a single
interface, making it much easier and faster for you to stay in touch with
your friends.*Download *Digsby Beta Build 90* in Softonic
