		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been a user of Trillian now for quite a number of years. Today I was welcomed with the message that they have launched a new web version of their aggregated instant messaging chat client. They&#8217;ll be competing with the likes of Digsby, eBuddy and Meebo.

The Trillian web client incorporates a general desktop look and feel, minus all of your other windows. I can understand this metaphor as can most computer users, but I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;s the best use of space.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been a user of Trillian now for quite a number of years. Today I was welcomed with the message that they have launched <a title="Trillian web chat" href="http://www.trillian.im/" target="_blank">a new web version of their aggregated instant messaging chat client</a>. They&#8217;ll be competing with the likes of <a title="Digsby" href="http://www.digsby.com" target="_blank">Digsby</a>, <a title="eBuddy" href="http://www.ebuddy.com" target="_blank">eBuddy</a> and <a title="Meebo" href="http://www.meebo.com" target="_blank">Meebo</a>.</p>

<p>The <a title="Trillian web" href="http://www.trillian.im/" target="_blank">Trillian web</a> client incorporates a general desktop look and feel, minus all of your other windows. I can understand this metaphor as can most computer users, but I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;s the best use of space. The more I use it though, I can see how taking advantage of the ALT+TAB function of switching windows tasks would allow you to quickly jump to all of your open chats very quickly.</p>
<p>As with the desktop client you can use just about every instant messaging platform you can think of and chat with video and audio. Organization of chat windows, grouping of all buddy lists and email notifications.</p>
<p>Visit the <a title="Trillian IM" href="http://www.trillian.im/" target="_blank">Trillian IM website</a> for more details and how you can possibly participate in their beta.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[I opened my Yahoo! Mail page this evening to check my email and noticed there&#8217;s a whole new version of interface. Like everyone else they&#8217;re providing the opportunity to do more &#34;social&#34; stuff like updating a status. The general appearance and layout has been cleaned up and sharpened a bit too.

I&#8217;m still working on some in-depth feature improvements. Texting isn&#8217;t new, unless I can get it to really work this time then that would be an improvement. The discussion about what&#8217;s new with social networking stuff included a twitter icon and YouTube, but still working on what&#8217;s involved in that [...]<p>Post from: <a href="http://www.everyjoe.com/uncovertheinternet">Uncover the Internet</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I opened my <a title="Yahoo" href="http://www.yahoo.com" target="_blank">Yahoo</a>! Mail page this evening to check my email and noticed there&#8217;s a whole new version of interface. Like everyone else they&#8217;re providing the opportunity to do more &quot;social&quot; stuff like updating a status. The general appearance and layout has been cleaned up and sharpened a bit too.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.everyjoe.com/uncovertheinternet/files/2009/06/newyahoointerface.gif"><img border="0" alt="new-yahoo-interface" src="http://www.everyjoe.com/uncovertheinternet/files/2009/06/newyahoointerface-thumb.gif" width="575" height="242" /></a></p>
<p>I&#8217;m still working on some in-depth feature improvements. Texting isn&#8217;t new, unless I can get it to really work this time then that would be an improvement. <a title="New Yahoo! Mail Improvements" href="http://overview.mail.yahoo.com/whatsnew/smarterinbox" target="_blank">The discussion</a> about what&#8217;s new with social networking stuff included a <a title="Twitter" href="http://www.twitter.com/bnpositive" target="_blank">twitter</a> icon and <a title="YouTube" href="http://www.youtube.com" target="_blank">YouTube</a>, but still working on what&#8217;s involved in that change.</p>
<p>A <a title="WordPress" href="http://www.wordpress.org" target="_blank">WordPress</a> application is new. Being able to publish to a <a title="WordPress" href="http://www.wordpress.org" target="_blank">WordPress</a> blog could be interesting. Tried to install the app though and there was some kind of error. Will try that again later.</p>
<p>Some other cool applications related to images are abundant: <a href="http://www.flickr.com" target="_blank">flickr</a>, <a href="http://www.photobucket.com" target="_blank">Photobucket</a>, MyPhotos and even <a href="http://www.picnik.com" target="_blank">Picnik</a> for editing all of those images. The list of applications starts to remind me of the early days of <a href="http://www.facebook.com" target="_blank">Facebook</a>.</p>
<p>Still can&#8217;t figure out why they&#8217;re showing the <a title="Twitter" href="http://www.twitter.com/bnpositive" target="_blank">twitter</a> icon. Let me know if you figure it out.</p>
