# Register a new account

Most account types require you to create an account with a service provider before you can use that account with instant messaging applications. You can use Empathy to register for a new account with some account providers using the same steps as you would to add an account.

Once you create a new account, your account provider should give you a login or a username and a password, as well as any additional information you need to connect using Empathy.

# IRC

IRC networks require that you specify a nick (nickname) when you connect to the server. Some IRC networks use a service, such as NickServ, to allow users to protect their nick. If you did not register your nick or are unable to do so and another user is using it, then you will need to choose a different one.

いくつかの IRC サーバーはパスワードで保護されています。それらのサーバーに接続するにはパスワードを知っている必要があります。一般に、パスワードは IRC ネットワークが配布します。

Many GNOME projects use `irc.gnome.org` for project-related discussion.

# Jabber

Jabber はオープンなインスタントメッセージング・システムです。電子メールのようにアカウント配布元を選べ、その配布元に関係なく、すべての Jabber ユーザーと交流できます。

You will need to create a new account with a Jabber provider. There are many free providers; one popular provider is jabber.org.

If you use Gmail or Google+ Hangouts, you already have a Jabber account. Use your Gmail address and password in Empathy to connect.

# People Nearby

This service works whenever you are connected to a local network, such as a wireless hotspot, you do not need to create an account with service providor, just set up your account through Empathy. It automatically finds all other users on the network who are also using this service.

For more information, see the salut protocol.

# SIP

SIP は、インターネット上で音声・映像の会話ができるオープンなシステムです。SIP プロバイダーでアカウントを作成する必要があります。どの SIP プロバイダーを利用しているかに関係なく、すべての SIP ユーザーと交流できます。

いくつかの SIP プロバイダーでは、あなたのコンピューターから通常の電話への通話ができます。一般に、この機能のためには有料サービスの契約が必要です。

# プロプライエタリなサービス

There are many proprietary instant messaging services that have been developed by different companies or organizations. Empathy allows you to connect to an existing account for some of these services. To create a new account with one of these services, you will need to visit the website for the service.
