I just downloaded the new SLim Second Life client released by Linden Lab. So far I like what it does but theres a few things that I don’t like about it…
Pros
- I like that I can contact friends in IM or be IMed by people when I am not logged in without using a webapp or other third party programs.
- Voice is enabled
Cons
- You need to download a first look client to be able to download your friends list.
- If you want to IM someone in the SLim client, they need to have the actual SLim beta.
- Unable to chat in public chat like you can with AjaxLife or similar programs.
/me understands that this is a beta and hopes it will be better. I’m sure as time progresses more functionality will be added to the SLim client. But so far I am enjoying it even if one person on my friends list only has the SLim client right now.
If theres one feature that needs to be added, I want a little popup that says X X is online at the bottom right side of the screen like some other applications do.
