I wanted to remind many of you that it is possible to connect to MSN/Yahoo/ICQ via Jabber on iChat 3 (Tiger), the tutorial is here.
I also wanted to remind you that it is possible to log on to Google Talk via iChat just by creating a new jabber account and entering your Gmail infos, read the tuto here.
And I also wanted to link you to the “complete” list of Jabber clients (multiplatform).
I consider PSI as the best one for OSX (available for PC and Linux too).
NB: for those who already know PSI: it has been redesigned a few months ago (cleaner design and icons).
This Tutorial has been created by Melvin Rivera for the AllForces Blog:
Step 1: Get your account set up
If you don’t have an MSN or Yahoo account, you need to create one. A hotmail account could be used for MSN. Create an MSN account at passport.net.
Step 2: Get a Jabber Client App
Since iChat has only basic support for Jabber, you need a Jabber Client Application to create a Jabber account. We’re going to use Psi, one of many Jabber Client Applications.
Go to PSI’s website psi.affinix.com and select the Mac OS version of PSI and the mirror server closest to you.
