It's a pretty big change from earlier versions of LimeWire. The first thing you'll notice is we rewrote the entire interface from scratch. You'll also noticed that we've included support for Jabber (XMPP). This means that LimeWire can sign-on to your favorite Jabber service and it will detect other friends of yours that are also signed on. You can share files directly with your friends. When you search, you'll see results from friends listed above other search results.
