New Gtalk and Yahoo Messenger Clients for Blackberry

As if a new Facebook app wasn’t enough for us Crackberry addicts…

As if Facebook wasn’t enough yesterday, we also got a Gtalk and Yahoo! chat client update up to version 2.0. After installing Gtalk here, there are decent upgrades, mainly displaying profile pictures, as noted by Robb, but I’m sure there’s plenty of other new features there that regular Gtalkers will readily spot.

I went right up an downloaded them both, but I can’t get the YIM client to work (it says it’s installed…). The Gtalk app looks like, noted, that it’s mostly an interface update.

Is this RIM trying to keep ahead of the iPhone? Push out more native and useful apps head of Steve and the iPhone crew? I think so, since while the iPhone is cool and has been hailed as the next big thing, the Blackberry still rules the roost for business applications. This can all change in a heart beat if Apple starts releasing more apps and let’s third-parties develop cool tools for it.

I’m sure that my fellow blognation editor Oliver Starr has deeper insights into this, but seeing the raft of new mobile apps coming out these are some exciting times, but I will still content that it is going to be data rates that will be the major roadblock to mass adoption.

New Yahoo Messenger for Mac 3.0 beta 2 release Leopard-ready, not much else


I've got to hand it to Yahoo: although it has a Messenger client for OS X that routinely gets eschewed for a certain program involving a duck, the company keeps chugging along with the new OS X version of Messenger. Beta 2 of the new Messenger application for Mac was released in September; since then, Yahoo seems to have been sniffing whiteboard markers in order to come up with the most tortured naming/numbering system. What am I talking about? Yahoo! Messenger for Mac 3.0 Beta 2 release 2, of course.

The big change in the new release is that Messenger for Mac 3.0 now supports Leopard. The chat room layout has been revamped, and both IM and chat windows now offer a button for hiding images. Also new is the ability to view the famous a/s/l information (that is, age, sex, and location) when hovering over a name, so you can be creepy without ever having to ask.

What still hasn't materialized is voice chat support, which the team has been working on for quite some time. My bet is that they're saving the Beta3 moniker for the voice chat release, which will probably (hopefully?) be the next one we see. There's also still no word on a release date. At least there's Adium in the meantime. Or always.
