I'm not sure, maybe someone else know, but there might be a thread for suggestions.

I like the RT quote idea but the more I think about it, I do not like the suggestion to let friends know when someone is signed-in SI. Unlike with IPs, where someone is either on or off, someone can **seem** to be on SI--when they actually are not. Here's how [real case]:

Yesterday I signed-in SI. When I disconnected from the server I connect to for internet access, I kept the sites I had been looking at open in Netscape [so I could resume where I had left off the next time I logged into my computer account]. I did not log in again last night and now, this morning, I am back making this posting--using the same SI page I was on yesterday. I did not have to sign back into SI. BUT, if the suggestion to let people know who was around was implemented, it would look like I was around, for about 24 hours, just ignoring people most of the time--when I was not, I was actually NOT around.
