Thanks for the tip. Love the yahoo IM. I know about the MSN version but hadn’t realized yahoo released one.

BTW – I agree. The google iPhone app works. Very nice.

@vanjos – Thanks for the feedback.
Normally, if a Corporation is blocking Instant Messaging clients (IM) they are probably also monitoring all outbound web traffic. Products like Websense and Surf Control (fyi – Surf Control was aquired by websense 12 months ago) do a really good job reporting and blocking where people are going as well as protocols being used on their network.

So, before you use the product at work, you might want to check with your IT guys to make sure it’s cool / not being monitored. Would hate for a Groovy reader to get in trouble!!!

Just an FYI
