Dear Mr. Presence,

Microsoft Lync has a great status note that I can set to let others know about my status. Often times, though, I just want to know what is going on with others in my team. Is there a way to view everyone’s note, with the most recent first?

Dear Actively Engaged,

You are in luck!  With Lync 2010 you can view the notes of all the Contacts in your Lync Contacts List sorted chronologically.  Just click on the Activity Feed Environment button.

 

The Activity Feed Tab

 

 

The Activity Feed

 

You will then see a list of all the Personal Status Notes, Out of Office Messages as well as changes to Photo, Office Location and Title (based on Active Directory).  This information will help you keep up with what your colleagues are doing in their professional lives.

Depending on how your system administrator has configured Lync Server, it is possible that the Activity feed could be entirely absent.  Also, the number of Personal Status Notes that are kept and displayed can vary based on administrative settings.

If you don’t want any information other than your current Personal Status Note and current Out of Office message to appear in the Activity Feed, you can always opt-out via the Lync options dialog.

 

Opt-out of the Activity Feed

    @Kathrine - Lync users can block other Lync users.  You just right click on the contact in your contact list and choose "Change Privacy Relationship" to "Blocked."  The blocked contact will then see you as "offline" in all circumstances and will be unable to initiate communications with you.

    @Dave Menninger Try to use this Supertoast by Idialog and personally I think the Lync team should implement this in their next update or next version of lync. On top it's free. modalitysystems.com/.../super-toast

    This is a great feature, however I'm copying the comment I made on a different blog post here as, has been stated, it's the closest I can find to getting into a dialog with anyone on the Lync team. -- We've just moved to Lync and the amount of complaints we're getting about the lack of ability to group or hide offline contacts in the "Group" tab is ridiculous. I actually feel embarrassed about suggesting to people they use the "Status" option as they give me the same answer I agree with which is "But I have my contacts grouped into teams!" As an example I have three teams of 10 people open for which I only care about the online status (In fact I only care about the online status of anyone, if they're offline, they're no use to me. In Communicator this took up a tiny amount of screen real estate, now in Lync I can't see half the third team as the offline contact push it off the screen. This feature must be SO Easy to implement and yet with a lack of any tangible response, Microsoft seem not to care or want to do anything about it.
