The article _is_ confusing. And it never says "Jabber, Inc." anywhere.
"Jabber [...] said it has signed up more than 4 million licensed users."
"In March, Jabber secured a $7.2m (£4.6m) investment from Intel Capital..."
Huh??
As I said, it is easy for one of us to figure out what this article really
means, but I can assure you the uninformed reader will be lost.
I'm not suggesting a name change. I'm not even suggesting any solution. I'm
just pointing out that this article is a problem. Do you find nothing wrong
with it?
