Hello Everyone, As some of you know, I've been working on a secret Jabber based project for some time. In the course of working on this, we've released punjab, palaver, and strophe. I'm finally able to tell everyone that we've lifted the curtain and Chesspark Beta is now here!
Chesspark is an online chess community. You can chat, play games, meeting new friends, do puzzles, and many other things. The whole system is built upon Jabber. In addition, we have built a web client (which also works as a normal Jabber client). Built on top of punjab and the Javascript version of strophe, this client allows you to play games and chat, join MUCs, and pretty much anything the native client can do. It even supports avatars. There is also a Windows client in case you don't like using web applications. You can visit Chesspark here: http://www.chesspark.com and try the webclient here: http://www.chesspark.com/webclient/client.xhtml Of course, this is only the start. There is much more to come, and hopefully even more games than just Chess. I hope you like it, jack.
