Could anyone possibly make a plugin that times how long you've been away? By starting some sort of timer when you type "brb" (or whatever you configure it to) and ends when you type "back", and then posts the time into the conversation..

So it'd look a bit like..

Midian says:
brb

Someone else  says:
ok

Midian says:
back

Midian says:
[00:02:34]

I don't think this would be hard to make since msn records times in the chatlog anyway, I just don't have the ability to make it myself and I don't feel like checking the chatlog everytime I want to see how long I've been

it is really easy to make in my idea.. not that i make programs or anything.. but it doesnt seem useful in anyway

one thing that could be useful is the idle time in the nickname, refreshed every 30 seconds or something like that..
