My Mac OS X instant messaging (IM) client is Adium … it is a pretty good replacement of Trillian on Windows. But I just learned it does not do IRC.
So I turned to my Friends In Tech and found the following recommendations:
I am trying out the Colloquy one right now. It seems to be just the right thing for me.
Also Kreg pointed me to this great resource: opensourcemac.org.
Today’s Tech Tidbits analysis segment examines Amazon S3 (via Computer World) and Red Hat virtualization plans (via Network World and Information Week).

I noticed that a recent edition of Engadget Podcast was sponsored by a "car oil" company. Bad for me for not remembering the name, but defintiely a more mainstream advertiser than the tech specific one I’d expect.
I guess the ads are probably being sold through the AOL Network so it might not be a targetted thing at all.
UPDATE (4/1/06): Ryan Block made a comment on the site to this post that their sponsor is Castrol. And that they have had other major sponsors like Best Buy and Nikon. I should have mentioned (sorry my mistake) the other two sponsors because it is true, and it also might have made it seem like this was Engadget’s first big deal. It is not. They have definitely been a leader in drawing in podcast sponsorship.

"Jersey Boys," the hit Broadway musical about Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, is going on the road.
The musical, directed by Des McAnuff, will begin a national tour at
the Curran Theater in San Francisco, starting in December. Exact dates,
future bookings and casting will be announced."Jersey Boys" has been doing strong business – including setting box
office records – since opening last November at the August Wilson
Theatre. The show, which has a book by Marshall Brickman and Rick
Elice, traces the history of the iconic pop quartet, whose hits
included such songs as "Sherry," "Big Girls Don’t Cry," "Oh, What a
Night" and "Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You."
I was catching up on some podcast listening today on my run, and as I was rounding the bend to come up the "hill" before the finish and my friend Dave Slusher with his Evil Genius Chroniles podcast for 03-04-06 came on.
His first song was a jem – Changelings’ Johnny Ether’s Great Escape. It made the end of the run very easy.
And as I was listening I was envisioning this great "movie" segment that this song could be the foundation for. I was thinking a kinda Sam Fisher – Splinter Cell meets Jack Bauer of 24. And then when the song was done, Dave did the same thing in his own way.
Very cool …

Members of FriendsInTech.com have been testing our bandwidth capabilities via Speakeasy and have decided to share some of our samples.
The big push for this was that George @ In The Trenches podcast recently hooked up an "industrial" mid-range Cisco box and got some great numbers over his consumer Linksys:

This podcast is a quick sit down with one of my favorite bloggers Phil Windley about his Digital Identity book (from O’Reilly) [ISBN#0596008783] and the Attention Economy. Phil was also pretty impressed with Ray Ozzie’s demo on "cut-n-paste" Internet demo. I also mention AOL’s Open API, and we both mention that microformats are growing in "traction."
