Fire replacement icon

Fire icon The majority of my friends in New York use AOL Instant Messenger, all my Dutch friends use MSN Messenger as well as my brother, a few amigos from Brazil are using ICQ, I have a few people on Yahoo! Messenger, then there’s wifey on the local network using Bonjour, and finally all my collegues on an internal Jabber server at work. Am I supposed to have six skinny yet tall windows littering my desktop? Get real!

Several years ago, I found this smokin’ application called Fire on Sourceforge (puns!). I’ve been a huge fan every since. The interface uses minimal desktop real estate, it’s very customizable, there’s even a tabbed chat window which keeps the window madness under control, and it’s a stable little program. There’s a ton of other features that I would encourage you to read about on their site. I will say that the one drawback is the poor performance of sending files or lack of audio and/or video chatting. But, pound for pound, if you’re typing text back and forth to you friends across multiple messaging platforms, this is the answer to all your dreams!

Since this app is free, I decided to make some sort of contribution and build a few additions to Fire. Feel free to download them both below.
