Ispq videochat 9 has stopped working3/14/2023 ![]() I've found Adium quite stable and easy to use. I love the ability to download scripts, soundsets and UI extras and easily install and use them with zero hassle. (Version 0.89.1) "A VERY NICE multi-service instant messaging client. Then stumbled across this and it's great! So thanks for a great programme! And no need for any changes - it's great as it is and changes seem to confuse my computer. "Thank youuuu! I have been stressing over my MSN for ages! Having to use crappy online ones because my MSN for Mac stopped working suddenly. For context, I have been using PSI for jabber lately. I like programs with a transparency option. When the novelty wears off I will probably turn off the quacking or change the sound. I am getting used to how they all appear in the contact list. ![]() Tabbed chat! I have a few accounts and some overlap with friends who have accounts on the same servers. "I just started using Adium and I love it. Updated libjson-glib, fixing some 64-bit issues.Disabled the Facebook CAPTCHA, updated the Facebook plugin.Version 1.3.10 makes the following additional changes: The online release notes for version 1.3 have complete details. Version 1.3 made a positively huge number of changes - easily enough to merit a 2.0 badge, which, for some reason, the authors eschewed. Partial address book integration, "cool" looking tabs, multiple protocols for instant messaging, and a compact contact list are some of the many features of the new Adium X. Versions 0.50 and later are the culmination of more than a year-long rewrite of Adium, which now utilizes libpurple (formerly libgaim, the core part of Pidgin) to connect to multiple protocols, and is also based on a new plugin architecture. It is probably the most capable IM client for the Macintosh, with a huge number of available options to customize the application to your liking, and it's actively updated and free, to boot. If you're coming from the Windows platform, you can think of Adium as Trillian for Mac OS X. But, the price tag tends to scare people away, I guess.Open source $0 Current Version: 1.3.10 (January 13, 2010)Īdium X (Formerly Adium, a simple AIM clone) is an extremely nice multi-protocol instant messaging client for Mac OS X, supporting AIM, MSN, Yahoo!, Jabber, Gadu-Gadu, and ICQ. I just wish this program would get adopted by more people, cause it really is a great app/community. Now they support full video and audio chat with up to 4 different people at a time, Quick Messages (ispq's version of IM'ing people) with Audio, Video, and full-color text/font styling support, directory chat, directory listings, and apparently (though I've not had a chance to test it) their "MyPlace" feature is working, too. I've been beta testing this for the last 4-5 months now, and I'm glad they've finally got all the bugs worked out. ISpQ 6.0 really is a totally different ballgame from past versions. In that time, iSpQ has really surpassed anything ICUII could've ever dreamed of, and I'm happy to see they've now got the Mac version on full par with the Windows version. That was some 3-4 years ago, and they haven't been back since. I remember when it was between ICUII and iSpQ, and it looked like iSpQ was a cheap rip-off of ICUII. I've used iSpQ, ICUII, iVisit, CuSeeMe, iChat AV. The rest of us who have more interesting things to say (or even show on webcam) go to the more popular online communities, even if video isn't supported. ![]() To that end, the software succeeds if its aim is to attract the lowest tier of Internet culture. In the end, iSpQ is really supposed to be about like minded-people getting together. The other channels on iSpQ are all but deserted (what the hell is a "Ruby" room anyway?) The rest of the end users are banished to "Clean Chat" for conversations that fall along the lines of "hi", "show me your " or otherwise similar come-ons. Let's face it: iSpQ is software for men who want to view naked women, and for women who want peddle their bodies online. So communities cannot actually thrive continually, as "My Room" revolves around you, not your specific interest. After getting used to Yahoo! and Google, participating in iSpQ communities is a huge letdown.Įnd users have the ability of create their own special "rooms", but these exist only as a long as you are online. ![]() This software is nicely done, but what is truly a disappointment is the way the communities are set up.
