The new iTunes "now playing" stuff is nice. It eliminates the need for my custom AppleScript to do this.

However, can't we set a mood message with macros in it, and have the iTunes info be merged?

i.e. I could set my mood message to: "~ listening to: %track by %artist"

...and skype could detect these variables and if present merge the string with the macros, instead of wiping out the message.

That's a super good idea! Let me put in our internal bug tracker/feature request system. smile.png

Thanks
