Chat client for various chat services

I'd recently worked on a project chat-server.
For that I'd two things: one is my server and the other is client.
In this, the client had to only know the IP of the server and the port no.
Now I want to make a chat client for gtalk, facebook etc. for that I need to be authentic(get username and password verified by those servers), IP and the port no. of the server.
Can anybody help me out in that how to get verified the username and password of the user? The IP and port no. of different servers(gtalk, facebook, etc.).
And what type of data will I receive from the server(number of users online, etc.), and how to parse them in my application? And further how to send the message from the user to the server and vice-versa?

In order to know, what configuration is used by what service provider, you need to walk through their API's, if they are open for Developers to see. For instance related to gtalk : Hope this link will give you knowledge regarding everything you need to make. Google Talk Documentation.
