Chatting Using Project WebSynergy

The 'Chat' feature in Project WebSynergy enables you to chat with the 'Friends' who are currently online.

If you consider the example of Sample Users for Project WebSynergy, Ed Developer, Mary Manager, and Chris Editor are the Friends for Paul Tester. The Friends portlet displays all the friends for the user.

This means, Paul can chat with Ed, Mary or Chris if they are online. You can chat with friends by clicking on Chat at the right-bottem of your page. Chat {0} indicates that no friends are online. Chat {1} indicates that there is one friend online.
