Adium 1.0

One chat client to rule them all.

Adium reaches 1.0, Mac users feel the earth moveI... don't know what to say. Adium, the popular third-party chat client for OS X, just got released into version 1.0 tonight. This has happened after years and years (and years, and years, and years, and years) of development—always adding new features, always being way better than any other standard chat clients from AIM or Apple—and never having reached 1.0 status. I'm one of those oldschool users, too—the type who remembers chatting with the Adam Iser all the time back in the dizzay. This is monumental. Like... the seas parting. Or Gmail coming out of beta.Anyway. Adium 1.0 has been through a year and a half in development, according to the Adium blog, and has over 600 enhancements and bug fixes.

Among them are: * Functional direct connect and file transfer * New interface * Global user profiles * iTunes "now playing" integration * Improved privacy management * Grouping of saved status messages * Redesigned chat transcript viewer * So, so much more
