Wait, this is an official Apple api to add additional networks to Messages? I'm surprised it exists. And even more surprised I haven't heard about it until now.

And even more surprised I haven't heard about it until now. > http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/IMServicePluginFrameworkRef/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009478 http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/AppleA... Two years old. Woah. This is very interesting. I feel silly for asking but does anybody know if this sort of thing is possible for the iOS Messages? (Probably not, but since this exists I don't know what to think anymore) OP where's the source to Project Amy?

This project is closed source. I'm planning on doing a follow-up post on how to write an IMServicePlugIn.

Unfortunately, iOS Messages is not extensible like this.

When Apple announced this framework back then at WWDC they showed a cool sample plugin: The plugin would receive a message, feed it through ELIZA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA) to create a response message. The demo ended with two iMessage instances chatting to each other and both used ELIZA. :)

As regards iOS Messages, it's possible. You just need a server to send/receive iMessages and interact with the App.net API. From my experience with http://irepl.im http://irepl.im, I wrote an introduction to playing with iMessage: https://46b.it/blog/2012/11/01/hacking-with-imessage/ https://46b.it/blog/2012/11/01/hacking-with-imessage/ Happy to help out or answer Qs if anyone's interested in making use of it :-)
