Nudge this

In version 7 of MSN Messenger, Microsoft introduced the attention-getting feature "Nudge". For those of you not familiar with it, Nudge basically shakes the recipient’s conversation window around the screen like some over-caffeinated three year old. Yes it's a great way to annoy friends and co-workers, but I think Microsoft really dropped the ball on this one. I think a far more salient device would be a "turkey slap" button; here the recipient’s window would mutate into a giant penis graphic, and proceed to "slap" itself against the monitor screen. Now that would grab someone's attention.
