I know v 1.0 just came out, but for v 2.0 do you think you could include a feature so the widget will tell me if I actually want to read the IM? |

No, when it said I had an IM when I had it by ID, it was always for me. |

if you use the same XML as the firefox widget, you can probably create a better one that checks both IMs and unread messages.. but nice job anyway.. |

He put a lot of hard work into it and since you suggested it why don't you open up the widget and add that feature.
