Trillian Astra is a very powerful communications tool that includes a huge number of features to enhance your IM experience, creating infinite possibilities during your journey on the Internet.
Whether you're a user tangled by the complexity of using more than one network, a user who is using only one messenger looking for a better experience, or an Internet user looking for an efficient way to stay updated with the world, Trillian Astra is designed for you.
Instant messaging is the most convenient means of communications on the internet today, filling an important niche between a phone call and e-mail; it's fast, and not too intrusive. Users connect to a central server which allows real time message delivery to and from other users.
These messages will utilize graphics, text and even streaming video to make the IM experience stronger. However, there are more than four different major messaging media currently in widespread use, which separates everyone and complicates this convenient way of communication. Trillian will "instantly" solve the problem!
