About Reggie
Hey Reggie – what a cool tool! I just installed it on my site and will tell you how it goes. Already received feedback that you get an error message when using Safari but ok on FF and IE.
I used a chatting widget for a while and had no luck with it – I truly think that texting is more efficient – THANKS!!!
Aghh that Safari.
I'll pass the info to Matt.
He's already working on it – pretty impressive!
That's got to be the best TOS I've ever agreed to. It's like 3 sentences. Beautiful!
Unfortunately this tool is another reason I need to leave our free-host and join the self-hosted world. It won't allow it. Doh!
Yeah, that TOS was really hard to think of. haha. I like to make things quick and simple.

Reggie, how do I get the widget for Delicious, FB, twitter etc?? under your post. Is that a plugin?
How can I use it in My country? Indonesia. Thanks Bro
Great widget … just now placed on my site. One question … can the time at top be changed; and if so, how? I'm in the central time zone.
Has anyone received a response from these people when asking a question???
No, I haven't. I left a message on Matt Rains blog and sent him a Facebook message with no avail. The widget has been down for several weeks now…would like to know if it is coming back.
i was wanting to use the widget by my cell number 9804186979, the I can not match the service provider . I am having Aircel Mobile connection. Is it be possible to use.
This widget is no longer working. Message now appears on website "The web site you are accessing has experienced an unexpected error.
Please contact the website administrator." Will this be fixed or do we need to find another widget? Please let me know, love the widget and hope it gets back online!
Sorry, just realized you aren't the creator of the widget. Please disregard.
