Dell Mini 9 and Empathy vs Skype

Well I received my Dell Mini 9 that I ordered 2 months ago to the day. 60 days to received my order from Dell, that has to be a record. Started to wonder if the computer would be obsolete before I could use it. I wrote this on dell.ca, but they deleted it probably to keep other buyer still spending money. It sure is nice to have your own blog where you can put any info you want. I enjoy reading other peoples blogs better than reviews, because you know there is no hidden agenda. Sure if you post a review on a sellers website it might be relevant info for the nest buyer, but how many reviews get deleted? It is best to use Google's blog search or have your friends buy the device before you do. In this case I have done so and I recommend the Dell Mini 9. It is small and easy to use and uses the most GPL Licensed software of any other Linux machine on the market. Now to get Empathy running. Did you know the XMPP is 10 years old. It was conceived the same time as the ISS. The International Space Station has gone from only 20 tones to over 300 tons in 10 years. Empathy will do more heavy lifting than Skype will every do.

  1. My problem is trying to move people. Does empathy have plugins for Skype? I've read in your other posts that you are a fan of the end product and not the app. Well, me too, so I love products that "do it all", like pidgin. It connects to nearly all of my friends from Skype to AIM to XMPP. Will Empathy do that? if so, Where do I sign up?

  2. I probably shouldn't be too dogmatic, because I miss some features in Pidgin and I do use Skype, but I try not to tell too many people that. I just looked today and I have 102 friends that use xmpp and 40 that use msn and 20 that use skype and 3 that use yahoo. but I pulled most of those people into gmail (XMPP). I figure msn, yahoo or skype aim icq or facebook will not join the xmpp federation until they have lost over 50 percent of their current users. The nice thing about the jabberd server is you can keep all IM in house.
