It has been a while since we have last seen an update to the main eBuddy client, which in the competitiveness of the web messenger market has forced the development team to respond. The result is a newer, fresher and more polished eBuddy application, containing several notable improvements. Vincent G at the eBuddy blog states:

• Loading of your contact list is now twice as fast as before! This means no more waiting, especially when you have a lot of friends in your contact list
• Many stability fixes, no longer your eBuddy gets disconnected for no reason or you can see users online who left the computer hours ago!
• Adding a network to your account has never been easier! We completely redesigned the way you add another account to your eBuddy, so it is less likely you make a mistake
• Redesign of all popup windows! They were soooo 2007
• New way of changing your name and custom status. Our user research showed that this actually annoyed you the most, so we changed it! Your name is most important, so it is displayed above your personal shout
• New Help pages. We are not there yet, but we completely redid the Frequently Asked Questions page. It should now answer your most urgent and common questions (surprisingly)

Yet more positive news hits Messenger Stuff. Web messengers are really pushing innovation in terms of user friendliness and, more recently, integration with a variety of new and interesting products. Good work eBuddy team!
