Dotsyntax is bezig met de ontwikkeling van Digsby, een multifunctioneel communicatieprogramma. Met dit programma kan via de netwerken van AIM, MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Google Talk, Jabber en Facebook Chat worden gechat. Daarnaast kan het ook e-mail van Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo Mail, AOL/AIM Mail en normale imap en pop3-accounts in de gaten houden. Ten slotte kan het ook zien of er iets is gebeurd op de pagina's op de sociale netwerksites van Facebook, Twitter, Myspace en Linkedin. De bedoeling is dat er ook versies voor Linux en Mac OS X ontwikkeld gaan worden, maar Digsby is voorlopig alleen voor Windows beschikbaar. Afgelopen woensdag is met buildnummer 37 een nieuwe publieke testversie uitgekomen. Hieronder is een overzicht van de belangrijkste veranderingen te vinden sinds build 33:
