Even though chat tools dedicated specifically to online instant messaging are not as popular as they used to be, there is something really attractive about an IM program that is compatible with most IM apps available out there and the subsequently used specific protocols. Add the portability factor, and you'll most likely end up with Pidgin Portable, an intuitive chat application that can speak most of the competition's languages.
The revolutionary idea behind this app is the fact that it's sort of a one-stop-shop for IM chatting. If you add the fact that it can be carried on the stick in this particular case, you've got yourself quite a powerful chat program on your hands. Compatibility extends to apps and services such as AIM, Yahoo, Messenger, ICQ, or IRC.
This is not the whole list, meaning there's plenty more to discover as you begin using Pidgin. It's far easier to manage multiple accounts because you'll be able to reach all of them from the same terminal or place. Carrying the app on your USB stick means you'll be carrying accessibility to all those services as well.
The app looks as you'd expect. It's somewhat stylish, but being an IM client, there's little point in making it too flashy. It integrates well with the modern look of today's operating systems and provides a neat and well-thought set of menus and options.
Amongst these, users can customize program reactions when messages are being sent or received, decide on emoji and smiley maximum size, have misspelled words highlighted, and so on. There are various areas that can be tailored to one's needs or wants. Sounds and Themes are probably the most popular of choices for newcomers. Knowledgeable users will probably fiddle with Network or Proxy settings.
No matter how you look at this program, it's a win-win situation. The customization factor and all the services that can be accessed are enough to convince any individual looking to chat with people online that you can't find anything better than this.
