Glancing

This is a presentation of a fantastic idea by Matt Webb being presented at ETCON:
<http://glancing.interconnected.org/2004/02/etcon/>
This is the sort of thing that would really benefit from being added to Opera 7.5's start panel. One of the first things I do when I go online is look to see who else is online. Not necessarily to start up a conversation or such like but just to see who is there.
The preview of glancing works using AOLs AIM server. I wonder if it could be used over IRC? Then when you open Opera & see the start panel you automatically & involuntarily glance at everyone in your contacts list (or subfolder of contacts). After that glancing continues in the usual way.
