iChat and... party
You must use or know at least one Instant Messaging (IM) program, don't you? MSN messenger, Yahoo Messenger, AIM (AOL Instant Messenger), ICQ for the oldies...
As you know, I no only use that stinking Windows. And on a Mac everything, works of course, but is also nice and pretty. This weekend I tried iChat, the Apple Instant Messenging. But I know nobody around me except a few friends have a Mac, so they won't use iChat. That's why I needed something to get my friends contacts on the cool iChat interface (picture above). And I found it! It's based on the Jabber protocol, a cool stuff too. Psi is an Instant messenging software allowing you to bring many different IM on the same software. Actually I'm using iChat software, with a Jabber interface offered by Psi (that I don't need anymore) to get my MSN contacts. Yeah, I don't understand neither. Wicked!
The other thing I wanted to tell you is that I went to a party yesterday. The first for many weeks... It was a colleague's house party (TomPap for some of you who knows him). But I was so confused to see every body coming in couples with their small children... I wasn't really expecting a student party, lot of drinks, dancing, laughing, like we used to have in Wollongong. But I wasn't expecting that too. Am I still a student? Yes, normally, until january. I don't think I should go to this kind of party, not really interesting when you are still single:
- Hi, nice to meet you!
- I'm married, fuck off!
Anyway I was glad to talk a bit and see my friend's new flat. Thank you Tom!
