One of the neat features of a few IM clients I’ve used recently is reporting the typing status of your contact. Seeing that they are typing a message lets me know they are actually responding in some fashion. However, there are a few times when this feature becomes more annoying than useful. Case in point, one person always shows up as “User has entered Text”. As if they had typed a reply but had not hit the ‘send’ button. I sit, waiting expectantly, for a response that never comes. At its worst, this happens when trying to get a message to the president of the company.
Anyone else have this experience?
