Shoutbox

a better way of implementing this feature would be to do what media player 9 did. have a specialised toolbar that appears whenever the main contact list isnt visable itd be the size of the messenger tray icon you click on it and all your contacts appear but in the same way that windows uses for the start menu so that they display in columns of screen height that you can scroll through itd make less scrolling thus making it a bit easier.
