I just thought of this a few moments ago. An english friend of mine said "You work at 5:00! You're late you know ". I explained that it was 5:00 MY time (which was 10:00 hers).

Well here is my idea. Have a script that could possibly calculate the timezone (based on the computer time) of the person on the other end and display a personal message that contains times accordingly.

I like in Canada, and when its 5:00 pm here, its 10:00 pm in England (approx). I work 5pm-9pm most days, and have that in my personal message sometimes (usually in my display name tho).

Anyway, if I put "I work 5:00pm to 9:00pm, be back later" in my name, then this script would show "I work 10:00pm to 2:00am, be back later" for my english friends.

I have people all over the world, and its a hassle when they don't clue in right away because of time zone differences lol.

Is this possible??

Sorry If I'm wrong, but...
How about this...

If is not what you want, I think it would be a good start.

I might be reading your post wrong, but you can't display a specific psm for each contact.

Yeah, what I wanted was a dynamic time zone for each contact to see. That sucks that it can't be done, but I didn't think it could anyway.

Thanks for that link MicroWay . Not what I am looking for, but still cool.
