me for work and personal separation. firefox's profiles are not as easy to use as chromes were but are still fine.

Hm, I do this using two versions of the same browser - Release and Beta. Maybe I should look into profiles, but I dislike the ugly icons it puts on the taskbar.

I've never felt the need for a second Chrome profile. Account switching on Google websites works pretty well, just click the thing in the corner and use your other account.

the bigger issue was my name being there. The initials in the new button were an improvement and the generic icons are great

my work is on google. we jut got google chat, but still have hangouts. google chat is only supported in browser. so if someone messages you both chrome and hangouts alert you.

“oh well just close one dumbass”

nope, chat has special rooms for group chat that don’t work with hangouts, and hangouts group chat doesn’t work with chat as far as I can tell. so if you don’t have both open you’re going to miss something. only direct messages are interoperable.

and half the office is still on ibm notes sametime.

kill me and grant me sweet release.

we only use skype for im not meetings or telephony, it's bad but better than sametime

I wish I still had it installed for a screenshot, it does this awesome thing where if you resize the window below the default minimum width it shrinks by cutting off the left side of the window, where everyone's names are

sametime is good in that it looks and feels like AIM. I just wish my coworkers would put 2004 emo songs as their away messages because that’d be funny as hell.

man you must be pretty brain damaged to not be able to figure out sametime. heres a hint. to chat w/ someone you double click on their name. then in the window that comes up you type in the lower half and hit enter. then the chat appears in the top!

unlike s4b you will never run into the scenario where you or your chat partner send ims and then they don't appear until you close and reopen that chat window. sametime also wont randomly decide you are away and send an IM to your email instead of the skype client.

I guess maybe you can shrink the sametime chat window smaller than you should be able to which is a funny gag, but the chat always works which is something you cant say for s4b.
