Hi all …
well i’'ve a very difficult problem. most of my contacts work still with a propretary messenger like icq, aim, msn or whatever … now i want to convince them from xmpp but how can i do that … has anyone of you some experience with it?
my arguments are: it’‘s free, it’‘s open, it’'s secure, no commercials and you can choose your client software and your provider (e.g. if you have a gmx account (gmx.net) you can use your mail address as your im address) …
but i always get to hear: my friends are all @ icq, aim, msn… security … whatever …
so i can offer them a icq transprot … even an aim transport… but msn not (it’'s illegal to connect to that network without an certified client - what the transport definitve is not!) …
so … any ideas how to convince them from the amenities of xmpp?
