Digsby – new improved version released
Digsby just released a new improved version. The release includes some major changes/improvements such as:
* Performance: We’ve optimized performance from the ground up, reducing overall CPU usage by about 50%
* Buddy List Search: Press Ctrl+F to easily search your buddy list or the web
* Emoticons: Added four new emoticon packs to choose from
* File Transfers: Improved the reliability of AIM, ICQ, and MSN file transfers
* Conversations: Added an option for new IM windows to start hidden and blink the tray icon instead of popping up a window
* New Infobox: The infobox now uses the same user interface control as the IM window (WebKit), making it much faster and more versatile
* Twitter: Added Retweet support
* MySpace: Added support for setting status on MySpace
* Google Talk: Added support for the Invisible status on Gtalk
* And More: Over 100 other bug fixes and enhancements!
I usually don’t blog about software that don’t work or have issues, but i wanted to try Digsby again…and again i had issues. This time was the installation.
It failed twice and i don’t know if is because i declined installing the two suspicious software “Registry power cleaner” and “PC confidential” or for some other reason. The third time it worked.
