Jabber Moment Instant Messenger

Jabber is an open-source communication protocol for instant messaging and presence, more commonly known today as XMPP (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol). It enables users to exchange messages in real time over the internet and includes support for features like text chat, voice/video calls, and file sharing. Originally developed by an open developer community, Jabber has been widely adopted across various platforms and services.

Detailed Overview:

• Open Standard:
  Jabber is built on an open standard, which means it’s free to use and not controlled by any single company, making it accessible for anyone to implement.
• XMPP-Based:
  It operates on the XMPP protocol, a flexible framework using XML to handle real-time communication and presence information.
• Key Features:
  Jabber supports a wide range of communication tools, including instant messaging, group chats, voice and video calling, and online collaboration.
• Decentralization:
  One of Jabber's strengths is its decentralized structure, allowing users to connect through different servers and still communicate across networks.
• Security:
  Jabber includes security measures such as encryption, and some clients offer end-to-end encryption using protocols like OTR (Off-the-Record Messaging).
