Grrr...

Just a quick bitch. I am using trillian which I think is a great IM client. It has been in the "news" that microsoft (and MSN) are going to start blocking any IM clients that use the old protocol and third party ones too. And we have to update. Well, since I really like Trillian, I was getting a little worried 'cause I kept on checking out their main page, and there was no info about it at all. I checked the FAQ. No info. I figured that this would be a big concern for a lot more people other than myself, so I did a search of the forums, and I found that one of the developers has posted a fix. Well, this is great. Things look like they will work fine now. However, they provided really no instructions or anything, so you have a bunch of people that are trying to open a dll file with some application. Now, to me it seemed obvious what to do, but that is more than what the user should be expected to know. Users should not have to guess what to do, not matter how easy the change. And more to the fact, if you have some change that you have to search for through the forums, that just sucks and is poor business. Imagine if every software company only provided info on a forum. Imagine searching MS site for updates that are required to make the sw work? Grrr... it is just such an easy change for them to have done, but they were too lazy to do it. I am just not impressed with that practice at all.
