Also just to clarify Adam's comment, the instance of Zimbie that has any bots deployed to it will of course have to be on a PC that is always running just like any server. (Mac version is currently being tested). But any end users of this service (people that add the bot to their buddy list) obviously do not have to be on always running machines. In the case of the free RSS buddy this will detect the user's online presence and begin to check for new feeds for them as soon as they are available.</p> <p>kieran.</p> Hi, thanks for the great mention. just to let your readers know we will have the beta support for the MSN protocol ready within a few days.
