Yay, i just received this newsletter on my aim account. They now allow multiprotocol messenger clients to use any kind of library to connect to their OSCAR service and there is OSCAR Protocol documentation available - yay someday there will be a stable jabber transport for aim, lets all hope for that.
And the best thing is the newsletter is even plaintext and just works with textile/markdown.
Would you like to know more…? ;-)

This is what just came over my Microsoft Messenger (MSN) Jabber-Transport…
Pour ajouter des contacts Yahoo! Messenger - téléphone intégré à votre liste de contacts, installez la dernière version de Windows Live™ Messenger.
… damn how does Microsoft know i had french lessons in school?!?
But no, i am not going to install the next version of Windows Live Messenger off course - but i think i will compile a development snapshot of psi soon as i tried it out on windows and noticed that they do blocking lists now if the server supports it. Yay, finally a serverbased jabber-antispam solution in a client - thats really something i guess.
Then again i guess i am not blocking msn.mandelbrot.zaphods.net, it might have something relevant to tell. ;-)

In the official google blog Mike Jazayeri, product manager for google talk writes that you can now subscribe to google talk even without having a gmail account. It has been quite some time now that they opened up their servers to the xmpp world, meaning that google talk users can basically reach anyone with a jabber account and vice versa. In fact the client protocol they use is jabber, so you can use any jabber client to connect to it. Here is how.
I run a connection to google talk as the fifth! jabber connection on my psi jabber client and it seems very stable to me. Yes thats a lot - i administer two jabber servers and off course like to know whats going on with those that some of my friends are responsible for.
