Na época, o único programa de mensagem instantânea existente era o ICQ, mas que ele nunca tinha usado.

I have to say, at first the pipes looked really confusing, but after looking at it a bit longer, they make so much sense. I always loved the text being sent every few seconds over a Bonjour chat, even if it can get people in trouble sometimes. Another interesting thing that I like is the "range" of the chat. That is, the time that it started through now, which is pretty neat. Any chance you have mockups of the buddylist or single user chat? I'd really like to see them. :) A fascinating look Jens, thanks.
