Re: Best IM program for TP?
I have used PalRingo and it works well. The bad thing is that if you close the chat, it doesnt save a log of waht was going on before...That is a bad thing for me.
Using Beejive, I noticed that this doesn't happen and the GUI is a lot better. BUT, the memory footprint of the program is WAY bigger than the one of Palring...Thus, I have a trade off between the programs.
I have tried fringe, but I don't remember exactly what I thought about it, I think I told someone that it was better than Palringo though.
UPDATE:
FRING uses about half the resources of Beejive. I will test Palringo In a bit.
UPDATE 2:
Palringo Uses 215K of memory
Fring uses 1390K of memory
BeeJive used about 2900K
This should help determine how much batt life they will take away, I don't think any of them use a lot of CPU power.
