Mac users: The Teutonic Spectator weblog published a free Applescript that embeds your available Skype contacts into the desktop using previously mentioned Lifehacker favorite GeekTool
After you download the Applescript file you will need to add the following shell entry to GeekTool (replacing [path] with your path to the Applescript file):
echo 'Skype:'; osascript [path]/SkypeOnlineUsers.scpt | tr , "\n" | iconv -f UTF-8 -t L1​
The script will show both your available contacts and the mood of each contact if they have assigned one. Thanks, Hannes!
Let GeekTool tell you, which of your Skype contacts are online [The Teutonic Spectator]
