Enterprise IM idea
Project proposal: An IM client that synchronises seamlessly with a contact list stored in an enterprise social network system (think: MS Exchange (webdav?), Confluence).
Initial thoughts: Use Jabber
Project Abstraction: Generic notification mechanism which could be used to send email, SMS, IM. Useable by CruiseControl/DamageControl/Confluence/IM client etc.
Rational: Certainly a need for this at work. Is there desire enough to do it?
Update: Also think friendster/orkut integration. I’m thinking a server with modular contact discovery mechanism, with client abstraction. Suport for multiple IM protocols or just use Jabber? YAGNI – use Jabber. I should really stop engaging in design by blog.
Update: Look at Jain – JSR 187.

Jabber is perfect.
But you could also start prototyping with something like www.pushlets.com.
