Still i miss the custom status for IM alongside the MeMenu's presence settings.. where is it? Available, Away, Busy, even Invisible are there, but no custom text status.. i like the idea of easy access to microblogging whether i have my clothes on when i come out of the shower or not, but i'd prefer to put the blogging use case where blogging is handled, and not so ambiguously close to IM presence settings.
