Multiplatform, Multiprotocol, IM And Conferencing Presence
BuddySpace is a powerful collaboration technology built on a strong IM core with four novel twists: (1) it allows optional maps for geographical & office-plan visualizations; (2) it is built on open source Jabber, which makes it interoperable with ICQ, MSN, Yahoo and others; (3) it is implemented in Java, so it is cross-platform; (4) it is Open Source, so it is 100% free with full sources readily available. BuddySpace provides a compelling user interface that can be highly compact, yet provide users with an important 'feel-good' factor, akin to seeing nearby office lights turned on when entering one's office building at night.
