Guys, now you do not need to very a bit about staying connected with your friends.There are so many so solutions available these days.These solutions are of 3 types --Download a chat client application, install a toolbar or extension, and use a social web browser.

Well, I suggest not to use an extension or toolbar as I personally found them irritating rather than doing any good they irritates you. So now we have 2 solutions and equally like them and use them almost on daily basis.

• Install a chat client which support multiple chat services and feeds

One such chat client(IM) which is my favorite is Trillian Astra.


Trillian - Astra-connects to everything-- Windows Live, Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo etc
This chat client has a lot to offer, voice, video, chat, feeds from various social networking sites which includes Facebook, twitter...not just that read your emails without opening the browser.

• Use a social web browser

Ever heard of a social web browser. Guys, Open Source community has a lot to offer for us and all free.The social web browser which is powered by open source Chromium Project and again it is also my favorite...This is Flock.

Some Key features of Flock:-

All new Flock is built on the same lightning fast, cutting edge code as Google Chrome.

It's called Chromium, which is geek-speak for the speed, stability, and security you would expect from a global, open-source project headed by Google.
