Features:
Fire is an awesome IM client for your Mac and despite the project no longer being developed (see Fire Developers Blog: the end of our development ) it's still available for download. With Fire you can simultaneously connect to AIM, ICQ, Yahoo!, MSN, Jabber and IRC all via a really cool interface which is dead easy to understand and follow which makes a change.. for me at least ;)
| End of An Era |
"We are saddened to announce that there will be no future versions of Fire. There are several reasons for this end, but the most notable is the loss of developers. Fire's development had dwindled to few developers who do not wish to continue the project alone. In addition, another major contributing factor is the fact that all but one of Fire's IM libraries is no longer in active development.
The good news is that two of Fire's developers have joined the Adium team and have written a transition path. Adium 1.0, upon first launch, will import your Fire accounts, away messages, groups, buddies, and logs into Adium. For future updates and IM needs, we suggest that you look at Adium."
