Imagine a chat-meeting through this “facility”, who? said what? when? basta! Give me a workgroup, structure this a bit (Company, business unit,…) and I'll be happy.
Not to step into compliance issues because we will be freaking out even more than I did.

Guys, please the whole point was “Help the Aged” but I guess I shall have Jarvis Cocker to convince you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMN_gOBmthM , or another post

Anyway, that's a bit irrelevant these days.<br><br>Multiple logins are good, but they way the work vary. I think Live messenger just broadcasts all messages to all logged in clients, where as Google Talk/XMPP clients send initial message to all or to the one with the highest priority. I've no idea how Skype works in this regard, though. I think the latest version of MSN… sorry, Live Messenger allows for multiple logins. Anyway, that's a bit irrelevant these days.

Just imagine the startup or SME, which uniquely communicates via Skype, using the same username. I often call remote countries, using my boss's Skype name, logged in as invisible, while he also uses it (though not, I think at the same time). <br><br>It's also very annoying to get MSN messenger et al telling that you can't log in, because you're logged into a different computer, or to have that other computer be logged out when you log in.
