This makes Bonsoir very useful of course. Again: Nice work, and I think lots of people will use this on tech conferences and other places where lots of people are online with Bonsoir. People: I would add the URL to Bonsoir in my iChat/AIM status message when on a conference. That way other would see it when they use Bonjour in iChat and download the app. Maybe that could be a feature for Bonsoir 1.1; an option to put the Bonsoir URL in iChat status when you launch it...? Thanks for your quick answer! This makes Bonsoir very useful of course.

Now, I’m not sure how that works if you’re on the same 802.11 network? Will all the other’s on that same wireless network find your vCard when you broadcast it with Bonsoir?" Yes it will :) How Bonjour works is that everybody on your local subnet will receive the Bonjour "messages" (in technical terms, your multicast DNS service advertisements). What Bonsoir does, is both a server and a client in one tiny application. It will "listen" for Bonsoir messages, and it will advertise it's own messages, meaning somebody else running Bonsoir will see "you" and be able to grab your vCard, and vice versa. Hope you enjoy! I'm working on finding somebody with an extra <a href="http://www.parallels.com" rel="nofollow">parallels license</a> to spare right now, so I can write the Windows version on my intel iMac :) “What it does, is to broadcast your vCard to other people on the same local network.
