After 19 Google hits today and what happened to me, I think Yahoo! blocked Trillian again
Tags :Announcement
No news from the Trillian site itself yet, but I couldn't
log in except with the native Yahoo! client. Interesting. They
did this once before (ok a few times for those counting) and the studios
came out quick with a patch.
I understand why Yahoo! does it, I really do get it. With
Trillian they lose the ability to deliver content based on profiles, advertisements
or the very very cool integrated Launchcast streaming audio. They
hook you there and then try to get you to purchase the upgraded service
for more channels and better quality. Does this mean no client should
offer some other choice for integration? Jabber seems to do just
fine tying in to the others but I think they actually made some agreements.
Grandma Yahoo! does like the friends of the kids talking on grandma's
phone lines it seems.
