I use Gwibber a lot.

One thing I didn't like about the Gwibber integration with the 
Messaging Menu
was how it showed message-specific entries instead of box entries with 
unread
counts like the Evolution integration does. Ken Van Dine recently fixed 
that and
I'm very happy for that.

As for the entry in the Messaging Menu, if it had character counting 
and url
shortening I'd be using it a lot more, because it makes sense: I 
shouldn't need
to explicitly open Gwibber to post a message, just like I shouldn't 
need to
explicitly open my contact list just to change my status.

I like the idea of the Messaging Menu being an app-independent inbox and
the Me Menu being an app-independent outbox. That's why I'd prefer that
the evolution "compose" entry was in the Me Menu.

Subject: [Ayatana] Do You Use Gwibber?


esteemed readers,

Do you use Gwibber?

It would be quite gratifying if this thread could produce some 
statistics or opinions.
I'm currently evaluating the role of Gwibber in the Ayatana subsystem.

We currently have Mail and IM portrayed by two seperate icons in the 
panel:
1) the envelope -> Mail -> Messaging Menu
2) the speech bubble -> IM -> Me Menu

Please respond, if you have the time...
I'd welcome opinions, symbolic icons for Gwibber or simply a boolean 
response ;)
