So you are building an app to provide the convenience of skype stati (available, away, busy, invisible, offline) to people who use phones to call people?

Nothing wrong with that but I don't see me updating another app while the information is in most cases available somewhere else. For the app to be useful I would need to give it even more information than I do with all other platforms while the benefit is that people aren't annoyed because I don't take their calls.

it seems like all you have to do is convince you friends to install the app and set locations / status they want to share and the app ( uses geo fencing ? ) updates the status for them and you when they enter those areas.
