MSN Messenger Web Presence

Hello,

I need to build a web site where I can check wich MSN Messenger user are connected. I would like to know if you plan to add (in a short time frame) a Web Presence solution to Messenger like the AIM presence. I would like also to know if it's possible to develope this functionality using your new API.

Best Regards,
Cristiano

    Cristiano,

    This is something we would like to enable.  But, there is nothing specific I can say at this point in terms of delivery time.

    Thank you for your fast answer, can a developer check the user status using the API and publish it on the web

    There's is a way of checking a user's status on a web page called Online Status Indicator.
    But in my experience it hasn't been very dependable.

    Yes, I made a plugin using MSN's API (not the Activity API) which runs in the background to detect status changes.  When your status is changed, it'll send the result to a text file.  Then you can open the text file for parsing and display the result on your webpage. :)
