Skype has this support built-in as well.
And the widget already exists to query the Skype servers directly – so that you’re only at their mercy… see SkypeStatus widget
I have an email form on my website. That gets my users all the feedback I want them to have. With over 1,000 unique visitors per day, if I added chat, I would never get anything done at work.
my experience is similar to john’s: a chat is too much of a distraction for work. this im status plugin is really neat, loads of options, loads of graphics, but I find it loading too slow.
I removed a Skype status after several weeks of no one calling me. I felt so lonely…alone…
Thanks for the feedback guys. I’m not much of a chat-user myself for the same reasons you’ve outlined yourself, but IM is a popular tool for personal blogs etc. or any other situation where people want others to be able to reach them. I’ve seen it used for providing online support for example.
The comments from Ajay about dependence on onlinestatus.org also raised the possibility of offering the option to use services own methods for determining status. This is something I’ll be looking into for the next few releases.
Thanks again for the feedback, much appreciated.
