Contact List
Powerful, simple, and elegant.

An impressive amount of information and contacts
are wrapped inside one simple contact list
window.

Manage Your Contacts

Everything in one place

The Trillian Contact List holds more than just contacts. It also shows news, social feeds, mail counts, widgets, and more! Everything is readily visible with a simple click.

Info Card

Highlight any list entry with your mouse cursor and extra information will appear in a convenient info card. Easily see status messages or an expanded news feed with a quick mouse movement.

Drag and Drop File Transfer

You can drag a file from Windows Explorer over any contact to initiate a file transfer right away.

Add Contacts Easily

The new and improved add contact window lets you choose groups and services with a cleaner and easily navigable interface.

Follow Links in Status Messages

When contacts share hyperlinks in their status messages, you can now view the link with a right click.

Contact Search

You can search by display name, user name, service, or even words in a news feed to narrow down your selection.

MetaContacts

Individual contacts can be bound together as one single contact.

Group Contacts in Identities

Separate your online personas with identities. For example, group your online friends in one identity, and group your real life friends in another.

Sort your Contacts According to Activity

Sort alphabetically, by status, by your own order, or by the size of your activity history with them.

Contact Notes

Keep a customized paragraph or two of notes specific to an individual contact and available for reading via tooltip.

Quick Preferences

Instant access to a handful of "quick" preferences, such as sounds and themes.

Manage Your Status

Change Your Status Message

Type messages directly into the contact list to immediately send across all available services.

Match your Music

Have your status message follow your music from iTunes, Windows Media Player or Winamp.

Change your Icon and Name Easily

Simply click your name and type to change your display name across all IM services. Drag a picture file into your avatar area to change it as well.

Configure Individual Connections

Online? Away? Invisible? You can see the status of connections to each IM or social service at a glance. Click to open the settings of individual connections. Drag to re-arrange or hide them away completely for simplicity.

Instant Diagnosis

When an individual connection is disconnected, Trillian will now notify you while it attempts to re-connect in the background.

Save and Retrieve Status Messages

Trillian now supports visible grouping of status messages, enhanced support for variables, font styles and emoticons, and as always, full control over how a given status message applies itself across connections.

Slick User Interface

Widgets on your Contact List and Desktop

Watch and track information around the web with colorful, multi-size widgets placed in your contact list or on your desktop.

Icon or List View in all Sizes

List each contact alongside its avatar, tile contacts together to conserve vertical space, or select a simplistic view that wastes no space whatsoever!

Go Minimal

Use our included Cobalt skin with the minimal interface to acheive your minimalist nirvana!

Clean Fit and Finish

Many parts of the window received attention, from a scrollbar that will hide automatically when not needed, to brand new clean and crisp IM service icons.

Auto-Resize

You can now optionally let Trillian resize its height to fit contents automatically.

Dock and Auto-Hide

Dock the contact list to a chosen edge of the monitor, making it a permanent fixture on the desktop ala the Windows Task Bar. Turn on auto-hide to keep it out of the way until you need it.

Floaters

Drag any element of your contact list off of your list and onto your desktop and see its status at all times.

Notifications

Notifiers

Have handy alerts pop up near your taskbar for events you consider important. Alerts are designed to be non-intrusive, appearing and disappearing gracefully.

Psychic Mode

Know when someone is about to send you a message, and easily block yourself from being detected.

Quick Reply

Instantly reply to incoming messages without opening a full message window using the new quick reply feature.

Individual Notifications

Take customized action when that certain someone signs online - play a special sound, open an alert window, etc.

Approve and Deny Within Notifications

Buttons will appear within authorization alerts directly, allowing for quick approval and denial.
