Internet activities are becoming more convenient nowadays with the emergence of web or desktop applications that can centralize many internet services under one roof, making your daily activities more and more efficient. After my recent review on Keepm, I stumbled upon Digsby which basically serves the same purpose as Keepm.
While Keepm put all your online contacts at one place, Digsby is a desktop application that integrates your IM accounts(Yahoo Messenger, AIM, MSN and Google Talk), email accounts (Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, and AOL) and social networks (Facebook, Myspace and Twitter) together. Digsby simplifies the process of having to login to different accounts to get up to date with your friends and associates. With only a single login you are already connected to your entire internet network and it will definitely save you time and effort.
The simplicity of the interface and its intuitiveness is the thing that really catch my attention. The design and its color combination is cheerful and brightful. Apart from its default skin, Digsby also offers 2 skins with several variations for you to choose from.
Other features include combined buddy list for ICQ, Yahoo, AIM, MSN, Jabber and Google Talk,merging duplicate contacts, tabbed chat windows and 2-way SMS from the IM window. There are few functions that can be performed directly from the Digsby such as “Mark as Read” or “Report Spam” right from the email InfoBox.
Tabbed chatting is a great feature and would be a great feature especially to those who frequently chat with multiple friends simultaneously. With this feature, our desktop and taskbar space will not be occupied unnecessarily by multiple chat windows.
You can see more features here and give it a try. The file size is roughly 17MB and it’s completely free to be downloaded here.
