Thanks for posting this, George. I used some of your ideas here for a simple jabber broadcast daemon.

Journeta (http://journeta.rubyforge.org/) is also very useful for ad-hoc networks where there may not be a central server, as is required with a Jabber-based solution.

I haven’t used the Jabber protocol as a message queue before like this, but my only concern is does it allow some sort of way to ensure that each message has guaranteed one-time delivery? If I sent out a message to the “cloud” I would want to make sure every message is either processed by a worker or held in the queue until a worker is available. My concern is that if workers were backed up, or (worst case) completely down, I would want to ensure no messages were lost.

I like the idea, and I think this could be a good fit for the Jabber PubSub spec (http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html). This way multiple application could “subscribe” to a node where other applications can pass events, and those applications can process those events however they need to. This event model could be easily distributed, and if you used ejabberd as your jabber server, you could have a pretty powerful and fault tolerant way to perform distributed programming tasks. Very very interesting.
