Instantbird is a multi-protocol Instant Messaging client. Using it, you can connect to all your different IM accounts.
It uses the Mozilla rendering engine to display IMs, and the Pidgin libpurple to connect to the different networks.
Instantbird is an open source software, so you are allowed to use, distribute and modify it.
What's New in This Release:
· The log viewer now groups your conversations by date.
Twitter improvements:
· The character counter for Twitter has been improved to take into account automatic link shortening, allowing you to easily tweet links without worrying about their length!
· Updated to the Twitter API v1.1, note that Instantbird 1.3 may stop working with Twitter on June 11th, 2013!
· Twitter now includes everyone you follow as a participant in your timeline.
· IRC authentication works better with bouncers (e.g. ZNC).
· You can now easily override self-signed/invalid/out-of-date certificates for IRC servers.
· Each account now keeps debug logs which can be accessed by right clicking on the account in the Account Manager and choosing "Copy Debug Logs", these contain essential information for developers to diagnose user issues. (Note that debug logs MAY contain sensitive information.)
Under the Hood:
