([GTalk](http://talk.google.com/), +Google's Jabber program, will also work.) This can be a convenient way to keep +up with your friends on %%site.name%%. + +If you don't already have a Jabber account, you can use GTalk or one of the other +[public Jabber services](http://www.jabber.org/im-services). You'll probably also +need an IM client like [Pidgin](http://www.pidgin.im/). + +Managing your IM settings +------------------------- + +Use the [IM settings](%%action.imsettings%%) page to set your IM preferences. You can add or change your Jabber address and set the flags for Jabber update. + +When you add or change your address, you'll receive a message from **%%xmpp.user%%@%%xmpp.server%%** asking you to confirm the change. (You may need to +add %%xmpp.user%%@%%xmpp.server%% to your buddy list *before* changing your IM +settings; this is definitely true for GTalk.) + +Sending updates +--------------- + +You send updates by sending messages to %%xmpp.user%%@%%xmpp.server%%. Messages +should be less than 140 characters; longer messages will be truncated. + +Commands +-------- + +You can do some minor management of your account through Jabber. These are the +currently-implemented commands: + +* **on**: Turn on notifications. You'll receive copies of messages by people + you subscribe to. +* **off**: Turn off notifications. You'll no longer receive Jabber + notifications. + |
