Registering for chat

Update March 2010

I have disabled in-band registration as I am sick to death with spammers.

You can now register by visiting this URL:
Jabber registeration

Happy chatting :)

Man .. I’m so a power user !! Can’t I use like IRC or something?
Funny you should mention that, take a look at the Bitlbee service at YeahNah

Registering for forum use

Registering for forum use has no relation to registering for Jabber Instant Messenger use, please do not confuse the two.

Registering for Jabber chat

There are several ways you can register with the YeahNah IM Server.

1. Registration via our Website

see above

2. Register with a Transport

If you already have a Jabber Account at jabber.yeahnah.co.nz, you can now register with the transports.
In PSI for instance, click on the menu General, then click Service Discovery. You will see the list of transports that are offered at jabber.yeahnah.co.nz. Below is a screenshot of something similar to what you would see.

Important notice about transports

You still need to complete a registeration process with the transport provider.
For Microsoft MSN Messenger go here
For AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) go here.

A note about AIM; I had to download the AIM software, and use that to register. when I was finished I removed the AIM software, and registered the transport here.

For ICQ go here.

A note about ICQ; It uses the same protocol as AIM. I also needed to use their application to register.
