Oh, rejoice! Cerulean Studios, the publishers of Trillian, has just announced a port of Trillian Astra to OS X.

Mac-Build1

One of the many things I missed after switching to the Mac was Trillian 3; I had to settle for Adium X, another multi-protocol chat application. Trillian 3 is a multi-protocol instant messaging application that combines MSN, Yahoo!, AIM, ICQ, and Jabber chatting into one single interface. Ever since I was recommended Trillian by a friend three years ago, I’d stopped using MSN Messenger or Yahoo! Messenger on their own. Trillian 3 was Cerulean Studio’s most-recent version for the longest time, and their announcement of the completely-rewritten Trillian Astra caused a big stir in the Trillian community.

I can’t wait to start alpha-testing Astra OS X.
