Adobe Connect 8 gains XMPP support via chat pod extension

Adobe Connect, Adobe's Flash-based Web conferencing solution, has just gained support for XMPP integration via a 'multi-user chat pod.' The chat pod will enable Connect users to chat with meeting participants using other chat clients and protols such as Adium or Jabber. Adobe hopes this will extend the collaborative possibilities of Connect using tools people already use, creating chat rooms, or 'text conferences' using the pod.

Connect 8 XMPP support is offered as a free downloadable extension available here.
