DBabble Discussions can be linked to usenet (NNTP) groups and interfaced to EmailDBabble provides discussion groups that can be created by any user who has permission to do so. These are similar to usenet (NNTP) groups, and the groups can optionally be linked to pull articles from external usenet groups. DBabble can also act as an NNTP server, so that news-readers can read DBabble discussions as though they are newsgroups. Additionally, DBabble can act as an SMTP server for the purpose of accepting incoming mail intended as articles for it's discussion groups. Users are able to tell DBabble to send any new articles in specified groups to them directly via Email or as instant messages. Discussions can also be marked as private and allow only certain users to read and/or post to them. DBabble Chat RoomsDBabble provides chat rooms that can be created by any user who has permission to do so. A chat room can optionally be made private so that only specified users have access to it. Server can be optionally linked to remote servers to enable interaction with remote usersDBabble servers can either be run as a stand-alone server, or can be linked to other servers worldwide via a master server that informs it of the location of other servers. Users are then able to communicate with users on other servers, and visit discussions and chat rooms that are hosted on other servers. Web Pages that are easily customizable to suit your needs.The web pages displayed to users when using the web browser interface to DBabble are easily customizable by the system administrator, to include anything they want such as advertising images and links. You can even change the name of the server and windows client from DBabble to anything you want. DBabble Windows ClientDBabble provides a Windows client that can be downloaded from your DBabble server. This provides users with an easier to use interface, which can offer more functionality such as detecting when a user is idle, and hence probably not at their computer, and a nicer notification system for when new messages arrive, and much more. Almost every piece of text visible to non administrator users in the Windows client can be changed by the server administrator to anything you want. You can even change the name from DBabble to anything else by changing a single setting. See some screen shots or animated screen shots or try it out yourself at http://free.dbabble.com Support for adding Server to Client EncryptionYou can easily link in an external encryption module to add server support for encryption (SSL) so your server can be a through the https protocol. You can also add support to the Windows client to allow client to server encryption. DBabble is used by all Netwin StaffAll Netwin staff spread over 2 cities and others working from home use DBabble for our internal instant messaging, and each version of DBabble is tested on our staff before release. This has resulted in many suggestions for improvements from our staff, which have been implemented and have made DBabble an ideal instant messaging system to use. Most Netwin staff run the Windows client, and the web browser version is also used by staff working on unix machines. Built in advertisement feature that you disable if you want.
DBabble has a built in advertisement system that lets you specify a list of advertisement
images and associated web pages on your server. Both the web browser and Windows client
display random advertisements that are occasionally changed. The advertisement feature
can be turned off by the server administrator if you would rather not use it.
A single 350MHz Pentium 2 server can support a user databases of 10 million users,
and up to 5,000 online users simultaneously. With a better machine, you can expect
better performance. See
