http://lj-transport.jabberstudio.org/test04.png - my (messy; damn you crappy graphviz!) chart of jabber integration with other technology atm. if anyone has any 
suggestions for other nodes/links, please give me a mail, thanks.
imo, jabber-rss, jabber-blog and jabber-mail are the top convergence frontlines for jabber at the moment. now, jabber-rss and jabber-mail have basic implementations, 
but there is no jabber-blog implementation past a couple of simple bots, and i find this extremely surprising seeing the proliferance of blogs throughout the oss and 
general internet communities coplues with the interest jabber has generated in the last few years. there are mentions of possible jabber-blog[ger] implementations from 
2001 (between a few jabber and blogger devs), but for some reason nothing has come of this. even jogger was retracted from js.org (although the cvs still exists), and 
its replacement (jawelo - http://www.jabberstudio.org/projects/jawelo) seems to be dead with no implementations to be found anywhere online.
so, i'm having a go at making a jabber2livejournal transport (which could be expanded to other apis later).
