 XMPP is a distributed system, which means that there isn't one single server or one centralized service where everybody has to have an account. There are multiple servers and providers, just like with email. You simply log on to your provider's server and start chatting with your friends. The servers will take care of exchanging the messages between the providers. XMPP is a distributed system, which means that there isn't one single server or one centralized service where everybody has to have an account.
