This session revolved around integrating Sametime with other applications and environments. It was interesting to see what some vendors are doing with ST, usch as Walkie Talkie voice integration, or integration with virtual worlds.
One of the major pieces of interest is Sametime 8.5 will offer a Proxy Server, allowing HTTP front-end access to community servers. Coupled with that is a web-based Sametime client which is fully DHTML based.
In addition to the obvious application of publishing Sametime client to extranet/internet clients without the need for a VPN, the other possibilities would be to publish presence information and initiate chats from BlogCentral, Associate Search and such.

You can integrate ST presence and chat into any MarsWeb application today. We've been doing it in Associate Search for over 5 years.
Having a "chat to support" feature in myM&Ms and other eCommerce sites would be a good thing so if this makes it easier to implement this is good news.
