Project Amy - App.net messaging integrated natively into Messages for the Mac

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.<p>&#62; <a href="http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/IMServicePluginFrameworkRef/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009478" rel="nofollow">http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/AppleA...</a><p>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)<p>OP where's the source to Project Amy?

Thanks, Steve. Really insightful integration of the best new API's in APP.net into a mainstream app. Many of APP.net's API's are truly superior, a jewel in the rough.<p>I agree that it's even better than Apparchy - the best hack at last Oct's hackathon.<p>It's devs like you (and others) which belie APP.net's long-term strength and genius.

This is so great!

Awesome!
