oh gosh; it is a strange and wondrous thing.
in some odd way,
messaging is as TCP as email is to instant messaging
think especially about persistence, queuing, addressing.
for a beginner view, try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Java_Message_Service
as an example of a standardised messaging scheme.

At work we are running into a need to deal with message passing in

standard tools
rather than letting the developers invent their own messaging-on-

This is an area I've sometimes wondered about ever since I heard about
midleware years ago but never really understood what it did... What is
message passing used for? Can you give me some general or generic
examples of what sort of application would use message passing and how
it is architected?
