Whether their developers are busy churning out another build moments after completing another or simply inspiring the IM industry as to the great things that can be achieved by thinking about the end user first, Digsby has earned the right to call itself Best Third-Party IM, as awarded by our readers in this year's IM Best Awards.
With the debut of this new client, new bars have been set across the board that will have some more veteran, corporately developed IMs taking notice; in addition to overall client efficiency (speed, user friendliness), the packaging of all our Internet activities within one strong application (IM, e-mail and social networking) and a bevy of personalization options will find newfound importance among IM users in the future. In the fast-paced society we live in, time is short and our list of things to do--in addition to keeping in touch with family and friends--is growing longer all the time. dotSyntax could have produced just another IM to clog the World Wide Web with, but instead did something different: they thought about us, our personalities, how we use of time online and voila! The most impressive new IM was born. Download Digsby for free. Available on Windows; clients for Mac and Linux coming soon.
Guide's Comments
While I have a sincere love for every single IM, I will say I am one of many joining the 'Digsby Nation'--a community of IM users finding great used of this client. I have been thoroughly impressed with how efficient the application operates and what it has meant for my own IM chats.How Readers Voted
