Everyone is going to hate me lol, but i guess i should state my opinion instead of lying. I... don’t really see the need/point of this. I understand that it would be a convenient way to access more information about someone you have as a contact on your list. And i can see that if you needed some information as to their time zone/birthday/bla bla then it would be useful.
But, if it was me.. and i wanted this information i would probably ask before hand. I also know most of my contacts quite well.. (hence why there my contacts) i don’t necessarily know most of there time zones. (This would be probably the only thing i would want) but i do know pretty much all the countries they live in.. so it wouldn’t exactly be a mission to find that out.
I can see the fact that you could add information that you couldn't add in a msn public profile, even know there is a person section and more. But if it was something that you couldn’t put in your profile, id just ask for it. I can see that if a person was not online, did not have a profile, and i wanted something but (say for instance) didn’t know when he would be back online. Even with the time zone, doesn’t really say when he will be back on, but rather says when he could be. Me personally i sometimes go online during the night and not the day. But again this would be all i would want to know, not a profile on the person.
All in all if this was implemented into plus i suppose a few people would use it once.. and then leave it. And if i really wanted something, id make sure i knew before hand and be organized for it. B-u-t again that’s just my honest opinion. Nice idea however
its nice to see more ideas now and then
