I just took a look Asterisk IM<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.jivesoftware.org/asterisk-im/">http://www.jivesoftware.org/asterisk-im/</a><br>
<br>
Is there a way for Asterisk IM to work with GoogleTalk (which I understand uses Jabber)<br>
<br>
Just wondering :)<br>

You don't.<br><br>Google Talk is based on the <a href="http://jabber.org">jabber.org</a> protocol, and as far as I<br>understand, that's also the protocol that delivers the voice.<br><br>Jabber is a decentralized protocol where everybody can set up their
<br>own servers etc., and user identities is based on the<br>username@servername schema. This means that all jabber users can<br>contact all other jabber users, no matter what their provider is -<br>however, Google Talk doesn't seem to allow incoming and outgoing
<br>requests to/from their system right now. Many big companies use jabber<br>protocol based instant messaging systems, and something seems to<br>indicate, that jabber will conquer the world.<br><br>There is no inline dtmf signalling in the protocol or something
<br>equivalent that would make it suitable for connecting to asterisk, or<br>make it suitable to replace the existing phone system. Therefore,<br>jabber and Google Talk must be seen as a collaboration tool for<br>computer users, and not a generic telephone tool.
<br><br>However, Google will probably incorporate SIP phone features in a<br>later version of the Google Talk client application.<br><br>One thing is sure: If somebody owns shares in Skype, sell them asap! :-)<br><br>Lars.
