Description (Last modified by Robby)

An extra field/page to the contact properties. This would allow the addition of URLs to the contact details. URLs could be added of the contact's

  • MySpace page
  • Facebook page
  • AIM page
  • ICQ page
  • GTalk2VoIP URL
  • SIP URL
  • ...

The system could provide automatic guesses of some urls as (eg ICQ homepage, gtalk2voip URL etc.)

These urls would appear as extra menu items on the context menu for the contact and and as an extra menu on a chat window. (The automatic guesses could appear on a second level menu too.)

Purpose:

To allow integration of other message systems etc.

eg. It would allow launching of emails or establishment of VOIP calls from addium using any software that supports stand urls (eg xlite 3)

Allow me to edit the description a little to be more specific, jessh. :)

I wonder if adding these links to contacts' context menus wouldn't be bloat...

Only if too many were added automatically. Most would be manually added by the user. (I guess what would be nicest is to have a maximum of 3 or 4 urls on the context menu and if more are added to have a URL sub menu instead.)
