Cool Tip of the Day 11: Customize Your Presence Information

  • Article

Microsoft®
Office Communicator 2007 R2 provides a full set of personal presence
attributes that you can customize and make available to other contacts
to help them communicate with you. As shown in this illustration,
presence attributes include your presence status, your location, and a
personal note.

Add and publish phone numbers

In the Office Communicator Title bar, click the Menu button, click Tools, click Options, and then click the Phones
tab. Click the button for the phone number you want to add. Enter the
phone number and then click OK. Check the Publish this phone number box
to make the number visible to others. After you add the phone number,
you should change Access Levels for those contacts with whom you want to
share your phone number. See “Control Access Levels to Your Presence Information” on this card for more information.

Manually change your presence status
Click your Presence button and then select a state.

Set your location
Click your Presence button, point to Current Location, and then select a location or create a new location.

Create a note
Click in the Type a note box, and then enter a note. Click outside the box when you are done.

    Is there any way for OC to know the name of the network the OS connected to? You know what would be very cool? If OC automatically changed my Current Location depending on whether I'm connected to a LAN (at the office) or a specific WiFi (at Home)

    Is there a way of doing this by using the keyboard only?
