In the words of a Modern day philosopher :-

Mr. T “Got no time for the jibba jabba!”

Well the Governor of the Insane Asylum has decided the Inmates need a new communication system to cut down on the expense of plumbers to fix broken pipes from the current system of tapping on the heating pipes with a metal cup.

So an email was sent forth from the Governor asking peoples opinions on what Messaging system they prefer, and what do they like. Some of the responses are below :-

  • PostIt Notes (My suggestion)
  • ICQ
  • Skype
  • MSN/ICQ/AIM/Yahoo/ANy
  • Walking over to person and Talking. (another one of Mine)

Then As the debate got sillier and sillier, involving Walkie-Talkie radios and Zombie invasions, I decided on the following Insane idea.

I vote for a telnet talker, and bots running on all our servers so they talk on there as well telling us when they not feel well, so we get preemptive IM chat from the servers before they break.

OK, so its all just Banter amongst the Inmates, nothing serious, right?

Wrong, The Governor comes to visit me in my nice padded room all happy and excited.. “I love your idea, can we really do that? it would be brilliant, I’ll let everyone know we going for our own IM system

So I’m now looking at an install of Jabberd2 on one of our servers, getting a series of clients to recommend for Linux, windows, iPhone, and getting all Inmates onto one locked down system.  Before getting our monitoring software to talk using it, and then making mini-AI’s for all our servers.

Oh and a support account to run from a widget on our customer only website…..

Its a good Job I am brilliant!!
