Community->Mo'timeNow->Chat & Alerts
This page describes how to utilize a number of different instant messaging applications to take advantage of some of mo'time's coolest features.
The quickest and easiest way to try the chatting and alert features of mo'time is by using mo'IM.
mo'IM is a one-click instant messenger that pops up directly from within the browser. You can open it up by clicking the direct link ("Open IM client") on the mo'time home page, if you're logged-in, on the same line as the Community headline.
When the pop-up window opens up (it may take a minute or so, depending on the speed of your Internet connection and your computer) you will see one buddy already in your list, evdisp, our software agent which will deliver your blog update alerts to you.
To add another user (or any friend of yours with a Jabber-compatible username in this format: jabberid@domain.com) just choose Add Contact from the only menu on the popup, aptly named "Menu." :-)
The Menu also allows you to:
Change contact view: toggles back and forth between showing all contacts or just online contacts.
Set my Status: change your "presence" settings.
Change Avatar: change the photo which appears next to your name.
Sound on/off toggle: Turn sound alerts on and off.
Motime Alerts: Opens a popup in which your alerts will appear.
About: Credits.
Logout: To end your instant messaging session.
