iGroupChat
This little app that I wrote might prove handy to someone – especially those who are trying out Friday’s Poker post.
You may know that when using iChat over the local network with Bonjour there is no facility for a group chat so I wrote iGroupChat. You type the message and then hit return and the message is sent to everyone in the iChat Bonjour buddy list who’s status is Available. “>>” preceeds the message so people can tell that it is a group message.
We have noticed recently that it is not 100% reliable, some people get missed out – quitting and restart that persons iChat seems to work but I’m not sure why its not working every time.

ooh, so close! i’ve been looking for a bonjour group messaging function for YEARS. thought i finally had found one.
unfortunately, i’m looking for something a little less thorough than all the folks on my bonjour list; was hoping to find something similar to the ichat functionality you get when you make a group from the buddy list where i could pick and choose.
tried to look at the script but was ‘run-only.’
bummer.
