It appears Adobe Air had a meltdown at TechCrunch today and nobody seems to know why. An Adobe product failing catastrophically for unknown reasons? Shocking. Anyway, it’s fortunate there was a 100% Adobe-free native Mac OS X Yammer client available for TechCrunch staff members to download. The end result: a switch to Gabble, and “everything is smooth sailing again.” Great news!

Gabble is now ready for Snow Leopard! This release also adds the ability to send private messages, follow/unfollow users, and includes some new message styles. Full release notes on the Gabble page.

UPDATE: It seems 1.3 is broken on 10.5 Intel so I’ve pulled the update until I can fix it. If you download now from the Gabble page you will get 1.2.1.

UPDATE 2: 1.3.1 is now up, it should fix the 10.5 crashing problems.

Gabble 1.2 is out, with Growl support, new message animations, customizable font sizes, and more! Head over to the Gabble page to check it out.

I just released a new version of Gabble, my Yammer Mac client, with support for attachments, tags, and some other small enhancements (view the full release notes here). If you’re running Gabble 1.0, you can update directly from within the application itself. If not, you can grab a copy on the Gabble page.

If you encounter any bugs or have any feedback/feature requests, feel free to send me an email or post in the comments. Enjoy!
