WhatsApp lets you “archive” and “mute” conversation threads
Very valuable features. Only recently discovered how valuable they are. Allows you to ignore those threads, resp. to even disallow them to gain your awareness within a limited amount of time.

adium supports “SIP / SIMPLE”
SIMPLE – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Found this out tonight, when I upgraded to adium-1.5.8b1.
Added my SIP account to adium, but I don’t know of anybody using “SIP / SIMPLE”. Is anybody out there, who can contact me à la “SIP / SIMPLE”?

Q: what about Adium 1.5rc3 and its Skype plugin? A: the Skype plugin got blacklisted
A couple of minutes ago, Adium popped up this message:
A new version of Adium is available.
Adium 1.5rc3 is now available––you have 1.4.4. Would you like to download it now?Release Notes:
Version 1.5rc3 …
General- …
- Blacklisted the Skype plugin in 1.5, as it’s known to be broken.
- …
No, I don’t want to run Adium without its Skype plugin (any more).
At least they mention now, there is a problem with the Skype plugin, so I don’t have to try.
I don’t know, what I am missing, if I stay with 1.4.4, but it would be much harder for me to run Adium without Skype. -
IRC with Adium: “Join Group Chat…”
You don’t immediately consider Adium the right tool for IRC, but you can do that. Set up an account, then “Join Group Chat…”!
I need that, because I have problems installing GoLang on Lion, and there is a channel for GoLang: #go-nuts on irc.freenode.net .
