BuddyTracker allows you to track your iChat buddies' activities during your absence. It is easy to use, and the software provides valuable insights into the activity of your friends.
Not satisfied with just a basic overview of your buddies' statuses? No problem. Buddy Tracker provides the ability to export all of your saved buddy history to HTML files, including details such as average availability and total online presence time. And if you're looking to get even more granular, the software also breaks down the data for each individual buddy.
Want to stay in touch with your buddies even when they're not around? Buddy Tracker has you covered there as well. With its ability to create and send pending buddy messages, you can rest assured that your friends receive your important messages when they return to their computer or become available again.
As an added bonus, Buddy Tracker also allows Mac OS X 10.4 users to edit their iChat profile, a feature not available in the native iChat software.
This is the first public release of Buddy Tracker, and while it is currently freeware and unsupported, it is worth noting that over 100 hours of work went into developing this tool. It has even been used successfully as part of a large-scale research project.
To use Buddy Tracker, all you need is iChat AV. Give it a try and see how it can help you keep better track of your iChat buddies!
