Facebook does XMPP!

The XMPP userbase just took a big leap forward! Today 400 million users got their XMPP accounts! Facebook enabled their XMPP support today. And unlike AIM [https://florianjensen.com/2008/01/17/aol-adopting-xmpp-aka-jabber/], I think it’s here to stay! How do I log in? Well, just use your Facebook

Evening. After having had a very productive Sunday, I seem not to be able to stop doing stuff :) So I started playing with chat.facebook.com (Facebook’s XMPP Server). Having read P1’s article that Facebook would be using Ejabberd made me curious, as I don’t believe Ejabberd

Jabber.me coming soon!

Evening guys, I thought I might just share my idea of Jabber.me here. As with all of my projects, the aim is to conquer the world (I am used to failure by now) and to offer the Jabber Community a fully equipped Jabber server. So let’s start off

Jabber and Data Portability

Today I discovered a very interesting initiative. It is about Data Portability. This might be the future for all websites and internet related applications.

E61 – The best mobile phone EVER!

Hey, yesterday I acquired an Nokia E61, which turned out to be one of the best investments I ever did. It’s a great mobile phone. You can install a ton of applications, and it has WiFi. Here is a small list of the things I currently do with it:

Yahoo & MSN

A few years ago, ICQ and AIM joined forces and opened their network to communicate to eachother. A few days ago, MSN opened their Network to the Yahoo Network. > “This first-of-its-kind interoperability between consumer IM leaders Microsoft and Yahoo! gives our customers tremendous control, convenience and freedom in their Web
