Below are some screenshots of Tafiti in action.
There is lots of great tech bits in this codebase such as:

I can not get the application to compile. It seems to be referencing a Microsoft.Live.Messenger DLL, that I can not find anywhere.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Hey John
sorry about that - we forgot to add a DLL to the solution.
i've uploaded it against this work item and we'll be adding it to the codebase.
