+1. though not fully committed mytime to move my services and stuff to prgmr servers yet, still it is/was much more fun and trust building when communicating with a real person while trying to solve issues.


I've added anonymous login option. Visitors can just login by entering user name, if chosen username is not registered.

Thanks for feedback.


By default blocking the unwanted popups is set in browsers.

Visitrs enables chatting in the same window regardless of whichever different domain the user is coming from, which serves the purpose "not interrupting the surfing process while chatting or vice versa" well (i guess :). In other implementations like using floating page elements or iframes for chatting, when user moves away from the domain,or opens another link in the same window, chat is interrupted.

I've updated the popup window contents where if popup is blocked, visitor can continue by simple clicking the inner link of the popup. I hope this will help usability.

Thanks for feedback.


i guess popup frenzy will be problematic, but it's the only way i could come up with to enable using the same chat window in multiple sites.

thanks for comments about registration. I have the idea of allowing users to discriminate by nicknames. By Openid and Oauth users are already using the same id's on many websites, so i believe it would be ideal to use same ids on visitrs, for it's aim is to connect the websites community online in almost realtime. But maybe i'm wrong :)

thanks


gah! timezone problems(gmt+2)! thanks for the visitors interested in my application, unfortunately i manage to be sleeping when anyone pings via the chatrooms :(

by the way, for it's initial release, i'm still fixing the bugs. so any kind of feedback, bug reports or enhancement requests are more than welcome..

thanks


thanks you for the feedback, sorry i was to be your guide,but fell asleep after hours of continuous coding :'(

1 - if user's main interest in it is chatting, then you're right, more people will grab interest of more people. somewhat similar to chicken-egg problem. spreading the word will mostly work with people from the closed communities, where users will need to pay for messaging and stuff.

2 - i was to finish the about page but nature didn't let me stay awake that much, will do it asap

3 - again this is related to number of people that will see some gain in using this application. i'll try to promote it and will see how much insterest it'll grab.

thanks for feedback :)


thanks. using the plugin and spreading the word might help this much ;)


hmm indeed i've never though about offer deadlines. now i need to find my next customer-to-be to try this :)

many thanks
