The Mercury System Logo
Introduction

The Mercury System is an Instant Messaging service written completely in PERL. It is meant as a low-maintainance system that will not require an executable server program to send messages between the users. It uses a minimal number of PERL/CGI scripts which will allow nearly anyone with a Web site to offer a full-featured IM system to it's members.

Why this weblog? This is a techlog that will announce the latest advancements in the system. What has been added and what has been changed to the system. It will also inform those interested when testing begins and when the system can be expected to go live.

Why on NuTang? I wanted a site that already had a solid user base to test the system which will ensure the largest number of testers possible. NuTang is also growing and I imagine that it will continue to for a long time which makes it a perfect place to test it.

How does this affect you? When it is ready and has been tested to satisfaction, you will be able to register with the IM system and have a full-featured IM system with which you can message all of your friends on NuTang. You also get to be some of the first people anywhere to try it and hopefully it will take off from there.

Please Help If Possible

Progress on the Mercury System has currently been halted. Due to problems with the free server that is hosting my site, I am unable to continue work on it at this point.

Unfortunately I am too short on money to pay for the new server that will become the permanent home of www.enteractiondesign.com (my domain name waiting in limbo until I have a server for it) and the Mercury System. I am working on it as quickly as I can, but it makes me feel as it time is a-wastin'.

If anyone has any server space that I may borrow, please let me know. The system requires ONLY cgi/PERL and very, very little space. This would be only until I have my own server again which should be relatively soon. And will certainly be as soon as it possibly can. I will definitely think of ways to express my gratitude for the help and also offer some credit in the development pages that will be included in the program documentation that will come standard in every download of the system. A possible 'thank you' will be a free license to operate the Mercury System on your server...but this will be discussed later.

Please leave a comment on this entry with contact info if there's any way that you can help out. Much appreciated!

I might be able to. I guess I can lend you some since I'm closing my site for just a month. I guess it's better for you to use it temporarily rather than waste the space. You can e-mail me: [email protected] hope i may help in some way.
