Ajaxed Instant Messenger
madhatter - June 8, 2006 - 01:03
Hi,
Is there anything out there that I can use to send messages to a user that is logged in, in a way that the message will instantly appear on the page s/he is on? I've looked at Private Message module, but the messages get put into an inbox. That's not very interactive.
Now when my users see a good article on my site, they cannot talk to/im the author instantly.

IM Module
Check out this module, seems to do what you're after: http://drupal.org/node/14553
Tried that as well
I'm looking for something more realtime. The messages only appear after a page refresh. I was hoping to find something with Ajax that would show the message as soon as the sender hits 'enter'
Feature Request?
Hmm, I see what you mean. I don't know of anything else that would be useful. Perhaps it would be best to create a full description of the exact functionality you're after and post it as a feature request on the IM module previously linked.
