ABSTRACT

Adium is now a widely-known multi-protocol chat program for the Mac, but this was not always so. Beginning as a single developer's pet project to learn Cocoa, Adium has evolved considerably through its 6 year history. This talk will discuss the best features of Adium, the major milestones in Adium's development, and where it looks to be going.

Speaker: Matt Handley
