  Techware Labs - Articles - Trillian Pro 2 Public Beta
Trillian users have been begging for quite some time to be able to separate their buddies.
A major motivation for using Trillian is it's ability to connect with two different screennames, and the major motivation to having two screennames is because they are often used for different groups of people.
However, Trillian has, in the past, had very poor support for the whole profile philosophy that is embedded in most programs now and for sure all modern OS's, and it merged all the buddy lists on each medium.

  Trillian (character) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Trillian is a brilliant astrophysicist whom Arthur Dent completely failed to chat up at a party at a flat (possibly above an Estate Agent's) in Islington.
The trilogy later reveals that Trillian eventually left the party with Zaphod Beeblebrox, who (according to the Quintessential Phase) is directly responsible for her nickname.
Trillian was played on radio by Susan Sheridan, on television by Sandra Dickinson (who also reprised an alternate-universe version of the role in the fifth and final radio series), on the Original Records LP version by Cindy Oswin, and in the recent film by Zooey Deschanel.

In order to gain any advantage, Trillian has found that when she the only one aboard she can bypass the standard safety constraints and make the ship extremely agile and very hard to target.
Trillian, the AI, knows what she is. But she also is left with the desire to be what her 'father' wanted her to be, which is human.
To this end she hides what she really is and tries to blend into the sea of humanity that struggles to live.

A minor bloodline character must put a level into the bloodline as if it were a class before level 12 or suffer a -20% exp penalty until a level is put into the bloodline.
Characters with bloodlines depending on the level of bloodline will show traces of their heritage, whether they are horns, auras, tails, or traits.
Include the character's bloodline level(s) when calculating any character ability based on his class levels (such as caster level for spellcasting characters, or save DCs for characters with special abilities who's DCs are based on class levels) The character doesn't gain any abilities, spells known, or spells per day from the bloodline level(s), though.

 HHGTTGOnline.com - Trillian Character Biography - Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy
Trillian, or Tricia McMillian as she was known on Earth, prior to its destruction by the Vogon Constructor Fleet, is one of only two humans to escape the planet Earth when the Vogons destroyed it to make way for a hyperspace bypass.
Not much is really known about Trillian, as she was a relatively minor character in the book and TV series, but more information is likely to be given in the 2005 movie, as one scene in the trailer shows Arthur and Trillian kissing.
The character of Trillian was played by Sandra Dickinson in the TV series, and is played by Zooey Deschanel in the 2005 big budget Disney movie, "The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy".

 Internet Relay Chat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
IRC is a plaintext protocol, which means that it is fully possible (though quite inconvenient) to use IRC via a basic byte-stream client such as netcat or telnet.
However, the protocol only uses a slightly modified version of ASCII, and does not originally provide any support for non-ASCII characters in text, with the result that many different, incompatible character encodings (such as ISO 8859-1 and UTF-8) are used.
Because most IRC implementations use an acyclic graph as their connection model, there is no redundancy, and outage of a server or a link can cause a netsplit.

Attempts to connect to AIM via Trillian were met with a message informing users that they had been disconnected for attempting to access AOL's network with unauthorized software.
A week later, Trillian is once again connecting to AIM, but the issues raised by the industry's profusion of IM systems that don't allow their users to speak with those using other systems remains unsettled.

 Concerns with the new history viewer (or: is waste a bug?) - Trillian Discussion Forums
Unicode will minimise the need for aforementioned character references and will also make the markup easier to read (though this isn't much of a concern for my design since text/plain logging is still retained).
Trillian should probably check for these temporary files upon starting new sessions (in case there was a crash) and incorporate them into the day's file since the session was effectively closed when Trillian crashed.
Once a secureIM session is over Trillian could opt to take the markup of the session, encrypt it via some method or another and then put it back within the element as a CDATA block.
