The point of the overlay is that it is connected with community so users can
join groups right from the server without using a bunch of work arounds and
abusing the invite system

Or we can use a url... I see major potential in this. If someone is stupid
enough to fall for a spoof inside the overlay browser, maybe they deserve it?

I've been poking around a little bit for some information on this. Is
it possible to open the overlay browser from an MOTD in games like L4D
and L4D2?
http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam://
Overlay Browser
* steam://overlay/Website or Arguments From Steam://url
*
I requested that a long long time ago. They have added support for it with
the ingame button on the menu to take you to the blog but its built into the
engine I believe and not a Steam:// command.

I would really love to see this feature added. Gives a little bit more
to the MOTD. The ability to open a site in the overlay browser would
help out a lot!

I think they are scared it would be abused. :P

On Wed,
I don't see how it could be abused further than the motd allows.
Hopefully this isn't the case, but you are probably right.

Why not have steam://overlay/community/# as a page then?
Then the worst you can do is force them to your community page. Don't
give direct access to web pages out of steams control.
