For each message, you get a nice popup, usually with the text of the message, depending on the messaging application.
For those of you wanting to suppress those annoying popups, Popup Blocker is the application you’ve been itching for. Popup Blocker gives you the ability to switch on/off over 10 native alerts.

The Android population is growing exponentially each and every day which means the demand for great applications is growing as well. Instant Messaging is one segment where there are bountiful amounts of applications. Sure, there are official dedicated applications for AIM and the like, but why download a seperaet application for each IM service when you can bundle them all in one with a single app?
Trillian, which was recently released in beta form for Android, allows you to do just that. Now only will yo ube able to log in to your various account but you will also be able to keep your various IMs tabbed and a built-in photo sharing application.
Seeing how it’s in beta a few bugs can be expected but if anyone gets a chance to try it out, let us know how it goes.
