In today's modern world there are so many ways to keep in touch with friends and family. One of the most popular and widespread is MSN Messenger. If you use this particular IM-ing programme to keep in touch, with the iBuddy you can now have an extra emotive feel, adding a bit more substance to the whole experience.

Just picture it, one of your friends logs on and iBuddy, perched atop your monitor, lets you know via its little heart starting to glow (It is just as cute as it sounds!). When you enter into a conversation iBuddy detects any emoticons within and responds appropriately through a combination of wing flapping, colour changing, and twisting.

For example if someone puts a heart emoticon in their message iBuddy's head glows while it twists and flaps its wings, whereas if someone sends an angry emoticon (You know, the red one going "Grrrrrrr!") iBuddy will flash red and twist.

If you don't want iBuddy going berzerk and alerting you to any Tom, Dick, or Harry logging on and messaging you, it can be taught to respond to just one contact. This makes it perfect for that special someone, and we've found that's when iBuddy is at its most effective.

The best way we can think of to describe iBuddy is as a sort of cross between an angel and a fairy. Although the poor thing has no facial features it's little mannerisms have ensured it has a place in all our hearts (and on all our monitors) here at Gadgets Towers. This is the perfect way to get a more personal experience out of your MSNing, and is an ideal gift for any messenger fanatic.
