Found this through a search for jabber. Sorry to bump an old thread but you still prefer it to other im's out there?

I stopped using AIM, MSN, and YahooIM on May 19th, 2006 and I haven't looked back. I can't really suggest that for everyone though—I only ask that if you already use multiple instant messaging systems that you should also use jabber. I explain it a bit better on this blog post: http://www.deepdarc.com/2006/05/19/full-time-jabber/

I still use MSN because its easy, free and most of my friends use it. Not real thrilled with all of the extra crap they are putting it, because its becoming a memory hog. So I'm looking for something else that I can use. Thanks.

Well, you can use MSN thru jabber transports, which is what I use to do before dropping the other IM networks entirely. There should be plenty of info on it out there on the internet. Just google for "Jabber MSN Gateway" or something.

Oh, and is it compatible with MSN, etc?

Bonjour, j'ai beaucoup de difficulté à utiliser les gateway (transport) je ne trouve pas de documentation réellement clair. Je trouve que des fois plusieurs termes semble vouloir dire la même chose. J'essai de me connecter avec irc et je n'y arrive jamais. Je met beaucoup de temps à rechercher. J'utilise Exodus 0.9.1.0 sous Windows et je suis avec linux-quebec.org qui selon ce que j'en comprend est mon serveur (ou transport). Ce que je comprend aussi est que pour chaque "gateway" que je veut utiliser je doit avoir un compte. C'est beau ca marche pour moi pour msn et yahoo. Mais est ce la même chose pour irc. De toute facon je crois qu'il serait intéressant que quelqu'un réalise un bon tutoriel sur l'utilisation des gateway (passerelle). Je crois qu'un coup que cela sera fait plusieurs seront intéressé à transférer et un coup que tu as utiliser et maitrisé un peu jabber tu n'as plus le goût d'utiliser autre chose. Il y a des gens qui disent que ce n'est pas la philosophie d'utiliser jabber pour les passerelles, mais je crois que c'est un bon début pour faire le transfert. Ah oui! J'espère qu'à travers mon commentaire vous avez compris que j'ai besoin d'aide pour comprendre clairement la mécanique afin de me bracher sur n'importe quel chat (irc ou jabber) ou est ce la même chose. Merci!

[TRACKBACK] Le but de l'Open Discussion Day est de promouvoir les protocoles ouverts mais surtout l'interopérabilité entre les différentes messageries instantanées entre elles

En effet à l'heure actuel, la personne qui utilise Yahoo Messenger ne peut pas parler

I tried making the switch a while back; unfortunately for me it didn't work out so well.

Too many of my friends loved MSN's avatars and refused to use Jabber because no client had avatars at the time. ("Jabber is ugly!").

I'm now using MSN for work, but I've also set up a Jabber server and am using that for ~50% of in-company contacts.

I suppose some users could be confused and think that if somebody wants to contact person@jabber.tld he should get an account on the same server, i.e. somebody@jabber.tld. I can be wrong, who knows? But some people thought so.

I've been a Trillian user in the past and the challenge I've seen is the changing rules from MSN and AOL. It seems to break comms with those services. Has this been addressed? As you know, but others may not, iChat supports AOL IM in addition to jabber.

I've got the gtalk, the jabber.org, AND the gizmo project! Gaspzors!

Seriously, kudos on making the switch. I hope it works out favorably... (personally, I'm not ready to do a full switch... but I've been logging into all my systems collectively for months).
