Scientific paper

In this paper I give a brief and subjective review of the current state of knowledge regarding jets from X-ray binary systems, also known as microquasars. In particular I discuss how the presence of different `types' of jet, as observed in the radio band, appears to relate to the accretion `state' of the source, as revealed by X-ray spectral and timing properties. Finally, I make some attempt to connect the observed patterns of behaviour to Active Galactic Nuclei.
