<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 <link xref="tech-d-bus">D-Bus</link> 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
protocol over modern instant messaging protocols like Jabber to
create interactive applications. You can create multi-player games or
collaborative editors that integrate with the desktop-wide
instant messaging services.</p>
