<title>Telepathy</title>

<p>Telepathy provides a powerful framework for interacting with the
user's instant messaging contacts. With Telepathy, all accounts and
connections are handled by a D-Bus session service that's deeply
integrated into the GNOME desktop. Applications can tie into this
service to communicate with contacts.</p>

<p>With the Telepathy Tubes API, you can even tunnel an arbitrary
protocal over modern instant messaging protocols like Jabber to
create interactive applications. Create multi-player games or
collaborative editors that integrate with the desktop-wide
instant messaging services.</p>
