Our little purple octopus is all blushy now, because the great known and respected downloadsquad.com (that's us giving love back in an obvious and cute way) decided to give us some very kind words, calling 8hands an "Almost perfect desktop client for all your social networks" and emphasizing that "For a public alpha, 8hands is already a pretty darn good solution for anyone who spends all day logged into multiple social networking sites".

To them we say a huge whopping thank you! But let us assure you that we will not rest and we will not stop! We will only continue to make 8hands even better, because we believe that you all deserve a full solution for the mess that we like to call our online social life.

For now, all we can offer you is the current "almost perfect" alpha version. Download it here for free.
