(CTS) OnlineMonitor Version 2.1




Details
OnlineMonitor --- an offworld controllable online status recorder
1. Introduction.
OnlineMonitor is a gadget that allows you to track online times of avatars. You can track anyone, they don't have to be on your friends list or show their online status if they are in the friends list.
It allows you to record the online times of residents or just let you see who is currently online.
The system is web-based. As such, the OnlineMonitor is controllable offworld through a webpage: It shows the online statuses and provides an interface to configure your system.
There are also a few goodies on the webpage:
* There is an online status indicator for your own status that you can build into your own website or blog; so everyone reading your site or blog will know whether you're currently online inworld,
* You can download a mini app for your Windows Sidebar or your OS X Dashboard that displays the online statuses of the residents you are monitoring on your desktop.
The device comes in two parts, a base station, disguised as a reproduction of Salvador Dalí's "The Persistence of Memory", and a HUD. The base station and the HUD could be used together or separately.
The base station is responsible for recording online times of the residents being tracked, while the HUD simply shows the residents that are currently
online. If a resident is in the same sim, also the position will be shown.

Base Station
The base station record online times of residents. It notifies you when a resident comes online or went offline. The notification method is either by IM or E-mail, or you can turn it off altogether.
It is also configurable to notify only when you are online or only when you are offline.
It optionally sends you an E-mail report at midnight (SLT) of all the data that has been recorded during the day.
For the Web interface to function (including the online indicator for your website/blog and the desktop mini apps), you *must* rez a base
station.
If you only want to use the OnlineMonitor HUD, rezzing the base station is not required.
The OnlineMonitor base station is the object named "The Persistence of Memory" located within your (CTS) OnlineMonitor folder. It is a reproduction of Salvador Dalí's "Persistence of Memory". If you don't like it you can modify the object any time to your liking and create your own OnlineMonitor
base station object out of it.
The HUD
The HUD shows the residents that are currently online above the HUD. The HUD has a number of buttons to add and remove residents, to retrieve
the statistics and to access the Web interface.
If you want to use the HUD, attach it to any HUD attachment point. By default it attaches to the bottom right HUD attachment point. As soon as you attach it, it will connect to the server and retrieve the names of the residents you are currently monitoring and adds them to the
HUD system.

Reviews (XX)
Does what it's supposed to do, and does it brilliantly.
It may be updated, don't know, but I seriously think this gadget in its current form deserves any of the previous bad reviews.
Not impressed
Don't believe the hype. This fails consistantly, and there has never been an update. Singularly unimpressed.
