iCal Calling iChat! Updated, Use iCal to Schedule iChat AV Status Messages

iCal Calling iChat! is an AppleScript application from Doug's AppleScripts that lets you schedule iCal Events as messages in your iChat AV status message, which is visible in other iChat users' Buddy Lists. Simply enter messages as New Events in iCal, set the start and stop times of each Event, and iCal Calling iChat! takes care of watching the clock and displaying your message throughout the day in iChat AV, from startup in the morning 'til shutdown at night. You can schedule messages hours, days, weeks, even months in advance!
