JiveTalk 1.0.3 released – Now Supports MySpace IM
Josep just pointed me to the new Jivetalk version 1.0.3 which has added quite a few new features under the hood since last time I gave it a look. Personally I use the native IM clients but I know many people who swear by Jivetalk who will gladly welcome these upgrades. Personally I find myself interested in trying it out again. Check out the details below (I bolded the interesting ones):
