Editing Trillian (software) (section)

=== Connection to multiple IM services ===
Trillian connects to multiple instant messaging services without the need of running multiple clients. Users can create multiple connections to the same service, and can also group connections under separate identities to prevent confusion. All contacts are gathered under the same contact list. Contacts are not bound to their own IM service groups, and can be dragged and dropped freely. Trillian represents each service with a different-colored sphere. Prior versions used the corporate logos for each service, but these were removed to avoid copyright issues, although some skins still use the original icons. The Trillian designers chose a [[Color code|color-coding]] scheme based on the [[Rapid transit|underground]] maps used by the [[London Underground]] that uses different colors to differentiate between different lines.<ref>[http://blog.trillian.im/?p=26 Underground lines colors] item on Cerulean Studios blog  {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150509052418/http://blog.trillian.im/?p=26 |date=May 9, 2015 }}</ref>
