The description of QQ - Play With New Friends
Complete IM client with cute design and great featuresQQ Messenger may not sound familiar, but it's the most popular IM client in China.QQ Messengermost popular IM clientWhen you think about IM clients, the first names that come to your head are MSN Messenger, Adium and the likes. But have you ever heard of QQ for Mac?IM clientsMSN MessengerAdiumWith more than one billion registered accounts, QQ for Mac is now more than just a simple IM client: it's a whole social phenomenon that millions of people use on a daily basis, and an essential part of their lives.What you can doWhat you can doThe truth is that QQ for Mac is not that different from other IM clients you may have used. There are the typical contacts list – which you can organize by groups - support for voice and video chats, smileys, nudges, ability to send photos and share files (with support for pause/resume!), and other utilities we're used to finding in IM clients. There's one important difference however: in QQ for Mac you hardly find any ads!Besides the traditional IM tools, QQ for Mac also includes some not-so-common features. You'll be able to capture an area of your screen or record a short video clip on the spot, and share both of them instantly with your contacts. Another area where QQ for Mac stands out is personalization. You can customize almost anything, from choosing a skin for the interface to selecting the font for your messages. The program also includes a wide selection of avatars and personal pictures to choose from, but if you don't like any of them, simply upload one from your hard drive. The only thing that didn't work for us was downloading more themes from the Web.Remote controlRemote controlQQ for Mac is mainly a tool for chat, but it can also be used to help your friends or customers thanks to its integrated Remote assistance tool: a basic remote control app that grants you access to your friend's desktop and enables you to help them with any computer issue.In general terms, QQ for Mac surprised us for various reasons: first, it features a nicely designed interface with cute buttons and icons, which is hard to find in IM clients; second, it has interesting extra features that make it a complete communication tool; and third, it's amazing how such a popular program with more than a billion users is still known by so few people over here!On the downside, QQ for Mac is a bit unreliable when trying to add contacts - which, by the way, are identified with numbers, like good old ICQ. Not a very user-friendly method, we'd say. Other than that, QQ Messenger is a great IM cilent that is definitely worth trying out.QQ for Mac, the most widely used IM client in China, has now an international version that may help it become even more popular!QQ for Mac, the most widely used IM client in China, has now an international version that may help it become even more popular!
