Perhaps it would be nice to have some quick keys to say hi/bye/sorry appearing different for each person based on their language (have it in the translation file) if it was possible?
You're thinking of Magna-Doodle. Etch-a-Sketch would be an extraordinarily unsuitable solution because in order to erase his notes, Scawen would have to pick up his house and shake it.
20 000 users * 10-15 languages (not sure how many there are) * 3 phrases. Good luck. It would be a nice gesture if it was done automatically. (if its not that much work)
Fair point, I was wrong, but the advantage of Etch-a-Sketch would be that he wouldn't lose his notes unless an earth tremour occured of sufficient magnitude, and they are rare in Twickenham. I think :S
