Three Minds On Digital Marketing @ Organic

If you're slightly OCD with your software tools like I am, you've tried all the IM clients out there. Including the official ones like MSN Messenger, AIM, Yahoo IM, ICQ, etc., as well as the 3rd party ones such as Trillian, Pidgin (formerly GAIM), and Miranda.  Each may have strengths in one area, but weaknesses in many others. I recently came to the conclusion there just isn't a good IM client.

Then I tried Digsby.

It's got everything - freeware, multi platform, multi protocol, and the most interesting feature I haven't seen anywhere else - truly interactive email management and social networking feeds.
Email support includes Gmail, Yahoo, MSN, but it also supports POP and IMAP. The key feature though, is that you can preview your messages and perform actions on them, right from Digsby. You can choose to mark mail as read, report it as spam, or delete it among others.

It's social networking support includes Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter (more to come later). Essentially, you will get notified of any events on your profile, as well new items in your news feed. The notifications are slick popup bubbles on your desktop and when double clicked, will take you to that item on the site.

It's only in beta but I've already switched permanently. There are also many other features that make it a winner. Check it out!
