LJ To Get IM
Sarah Perez on July 10th, 2006
LiveJournalers, your time has come! The LJ development community has just announced that LJers now have IM capabilites though open-source Jabber chat clients using their LJ username and password. In the future, there are plans to integrate with the GoogleTalk client as well. The Jabber buddy list is integrated with a user’s LJ friends list. Currently, as this is still in alpha, SSL support is not enabled, so conversations could be sniffed, but not login information. As of now, the working clients are iChat, Adium, Trillian Pro, gaim, Pandion, Psi, Miranda, SIM-IM, Kopete, and Tkabber.
