Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method, a system, and an apparatus for redirecting information. A binding relationship between IDs of various websites may be stored in advance. When a terminal accesses a website, if websites that have been accessed by the terminal are websites related to the stored binding relationship, then at least one other website bound with the websites that have been accessed by the terminal may be selected from the binding relationship. The terminal may become a targeted terminal for the selected website(s) in receiving messages corresponding to the selected website(s). The scope of target terminals for redirection is expanded and more terminals having needs are able to receive useful messages in time. In addition, as the websites bound with each other have certain relevancy or similarity in their business, the redirection process in the present disclosure would not send messages aimlessly to cause waste of system resource.

Abstract: The present invention provides an instant messaging method to establish a corresponding relationship between a browser application and a message port of an instant messaging server; start the browser application to establish a session with the message port of the instant messaging server; and, through the session, send to the instant messaging server an instant message intended to a communication party and receive from the instant messaging server an instant message sent by the communication party. Using the instant messaging server to provide a message port to a browser application enables a user who does not have instant messaging tools installed to do instant messaging with another party which has instant messaging tools installed, by simply starting the browser application. The invention significantly improves the convenience and user participation in instant messaging.
