KIM Protocol

Ki Instant Messaging (KIM) Protocol

“[...] will be possible for a business man in New York to dictate instructions, and have them instantly appear in type at his office in London or elsewhere. He will be able to call up, from his desk, and talk to any telephone subscriber on the globe, without any change whatever in the existing equipment. An inexpensive instrument, not bigger than a watch, will enable its bearer to hear anywhere, on sea or land, music or song, the speech of a political leader, the address of an eminent man of science, or the sermon of an eloquent clergyman, delivered in some other place, however distant. In the same manner any picture, character, drawing, or print can be transferred from one to another place. Millions of such instruments can be operated from but one plant of this kind. [...]“
Nikola Tesla (1908)

[On the Wardenclyffe Tower, in "The Future of the Wireless Art" in Wireless Telegraphy and Telephony (1908) ]

  1. Wow. I’ve been wanting to work on a chat protocol like this for some time.
    I don’t have a lot of coding skills yet though. Something that would
    be original and unique to add to this chat protocol would be server-verified IP based
    supernode physical location for the purpose of automatically creating
    regional chat rooms in addition to subject-based chat rooms.

  2. Hi terlmann, glad to see somebody interested on it :)
    Good feature, sounds like the search by place on Skype…
    EServer looks to be server-less, but something like that could be implemented.

    Regards!


IMPORTANT! To be able to proceed, you need to solve the following simple math (so we know that you are a human) :-)

What is 10 + 4 ?
