LanTalk.NET allows other people in your contact list to see your online status, as well as allowing you to see theirs.
LanTalk.NET includes the following statuses:
You can choose any status you like. LanTalk.NET automatically notifies everyone in your contact list about your status change.
Only two statuses have strictly defined meaning:
| Offline | Means you are unavailable (your PC is shut down, LanTalk.NET is not running, network is unavailable, etc.). |
| Online | Means your computer is connected to the network and the application is responding to status requests. |
All the other statuses are relative and show the degree of absence:
| Away | Means you are away for a short time and will return soon (e.g. on a coffee break). |
| Busy | Means you are busy and don not want to be disturbed. |
| Out | Means you are away and will not return soon (e.g. having dinner). |
