AOL Instant Messenger buddy statistics site?

April 26, 2005 8:54 PM

I found a site a while ago, where you would enter AOL/AIM screen names to monitor, and it will store data on when the name is online/away... now it's been long enough to get some nice data but I can't Google my way around to it.

I remember seeing this somewhere too. In looking thru del.icio.us/tag/aim I thought I could find it but I couldn't. I'll be checking back myself...

AwayToWeb by Adam Mathes? An extension of IMStalking.

It's useful to tell when my internet connections go down and for how long, since I try to be on 24/7... thank you maya :)

However AwayToWeb is awesome in a different respect: "Awaytoweb is a simple perl script that monitors AOL Instant Messenger Away messages to produce simple web pages and RSS feeds."

Personally, I enjoy stalking people. I never though to use it for anything practical ;).

p.s. trinarian- lighten up, okay? i'm being facetious.

Um, does imwatching.net totally not work for anyone else? I can make a login and add names, but no data ever shows up....just grey bars of "unknown". :(
