Pidgin IM - A NEW OPEN SOURCE IM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh and WIRESHARK!!!!!!

Well no.

Not really.


If you are into open source, you would have heard it before.


Its GAIM =)


But its preetier and cuter.

Besides, I like pigeons haha.

It was changed as GNU AIM had some trouble with AIM, and it was a pretty obvious problem, I am glad they changed it to Pidgin. Given that the Internet has spawned it own vocabulary with emoticons and strange terms like brb, lol, rtfm, sarnath' hay Pidgin is the right call =)


2.02 is the version todate, and it is preety stable =)


In other news(old one I guess), Ethereal is now known as Wireshark, now I feel Ethereal is a much better name and I suspect it gave the original company more mileage than they care to admit, but their loss. Wireshark is alot more stable now anyways ;) Oh the salt in the wound? Wireshark works better than the older version on windows. Did I mention that is were the masses are. 10 points for open source! and ironically because of the non-open source crowd =)
