Today and like most of the days in the last month, I used to meeting some of the Zend Framework guys in a chat room on the framework’s chat server. they are using a open source chat server named Wildfire which supports the XMPP(Jabber) protocol. so connecting to this server will require some special chat client.
It was my first time to know about the Jabber protocol and as a first step, I had to search for a good client to work with it. my first try was with a client named Pandion . I was working with Pandion for a month till this morning when I decided getting a better client. Pandion wasn’t bad, but I wanted something can connect to many servers in the same time.
Also, Google Talk can be accessed using any Jabber/XMPP client. so it will be nice if I can be connected to GTalk  while connected to other servers too using one program (I hate managing all this chat clients). there is a list of good clients listed in GTalk’s FAQ.
Now my new client is Psi . it supports connecting to many servers, very light weight , user friendly Interface,  memory friendly and supports many platforms. I like it, maybe this is the best and the only one that supports connecting to many servers in the same time.

Okay enough, I’m hungry. I will go get something to eat.
