Today I am going to start by inviting all of you to join me in designing a plug-in. The deal is this: I am your developer. You tell me the features you want, and if I think I can do it, I will estimate the effort, design it, and make it happen. The end result, is a plug-in that we can all use and share. I hope that the effort can be concluded within 60 days. (Remember, I can only work on this in my spare time.)
The plug-in I propose to make is based on an idea that has been around for a while. I want to add the ability in AIM to let you paint on an image that you and your buddy can see in real-time.
Does this sound like a good idea? Remember this plug-in is for you. What would you do with such a plug-in? Draw lines? stamp icons? Write secret messages? What shall we name it?
Please leave your thoughts and ideas as comments. Maybe we can form a chat room and talk about this. Lets see how it goes. The floor is now open to you.
Thanks.
I have a new plug-in ready for testing. This one is extremely simple. AIM 6.1 gives you the option to let your linked accounts sign-on as invisible, but your primary account is always signed on as visible. This plug-in simply signs your primary and linked accounts on as invisible every time. Once online, you can toggle your invisibility state by clicking on the eyeball.
