Imaginary Jabber Conversation
To help you better understand what transpires during a Jabber-based conversation, this section presents a conversation between two friends, Jim and John, and two “assistant” applications at their respective places of work.
Jim and John work at two different companies. Both of them invest in the stock market, and they use a Jabber-based service to check and monitor prices, to buy and sell shares, and to manage their portfolios. John’s company also has a workflow assistant that monitors incoming email and coordinates work items between colleagues.
Jim is notified that John is available:
