Hi all- this seems like a great site but I haven't been able to figure out what I need- I want to allow a process to send out 'alerts' to people via IM (AOL primarily, but I'd like multiplatform availability). GAIM seems to support plugins that might work- or would I be better off creating a bot that I can pass parameters to?? any help greatly appreciated!

I'm not familiar with GAIM's plugins, but if you already use GAIM, then I'm betting it would be much less work on your part.

If having something that works with other platforms is worth the extra work to you, its just a matter of knowing the right programming language(s) and depends on which platforms you want.

GAIM used to have a feature that allowed plugins to be written in perl, but that feature has slowly been killed in the later versions.
