More fun with Live Messenger

I don't have a ton of contacts, but because my Live Messenger window is usually minimized I needed a way to see who was online and a quick way to start a conversation. Here's how I can do it from a PowerShell prompt.

Follow the Yellow Brick Road

Welcome to the PowerShell Community and the PowerShell-ED blog. My name is Jeffery Hicks, also a Microsoft MVP for PowerShell. I am a Scripting Guru for SAPIEN Technologies which basically means I am to go forth, spread the news about Windows administrative automation and help out where I can. PowerShell is THE way to administrative enlightenment. If you follow the Yellow Brick road to Oz, you'll find great rewards at the end.

PowerShell can be a little overwhelming at first and you may feel like you've been "shelled", but fear not. The purpose of this community, and whatever I can do in my blog, is to take away the fear and provide the information, training, education, community, tools or whatever it takes so that you can achieve your PowerShell goals.
