Happy Birthday to #InstantMessaging and #RealTimeCommunication with #XMPP!
Emerged from the #Jabber #community in 1999 and originally designed to provide an open and #decentralised alternative to #ICQ and #MSN, XMPP evolved to an independent alternative for todays #chat apps.

Was mir immer wieder auffällt ist, dass immer weniger Menschen zur #Kommunikation offene Standard verwenden und sich diese dann auf das Smartphone verlagert.
Alle wissen es, nur eine Familie nicht. Warum? Wir haben es doch in die ***** Gruppe geschrieben.
Diese ***** Gruppe will man vielleicht schon alleine wegen dem Unternehmen nicht, aber sie ist vielleicht auch nur auf dem Smartphone mit Mobilefunknummer verwendbar.
Dies ist oft auch dann der Fall, wenn eigentlich beispielsweise E-Mail als offizieller Kommunikationskanal verwendet werden sollte. Sobald neben der E-Mail eine ***** Gruppe existiert, ist man ohne Smartphone "raus".
Das sind meiner persönlichen Erfahrungen, die ich immer öfter mache.
