Jaiku learns how to Jabber
One of the things that has kept me returning to Twitter for all my micro/presence blogging has been it’s simple and easy IM bot - just send it a message and you have posted. All posts from people I follow (and direct messages) are also sent to me. Well now Jaiku has joined the ranks of Jabber-enabled apps and it has raised the stakes considerably with some great features. Jaiku has for a while now supported channels and the bot will let you post and reply to channels as well as to your presence stream.
Nice job RalphM and the Jaiku team!
