Speech for Messenger Plus!

The Obviously Blatant

Update: If you're looking for this feature for Plus! Live, get the Speakit! Plus script.

I've been using Messenger Plus!, the highly popular free Windows/MSN Messenger addon, for about a year now. I was messing about with the Plugins SDK, and came up with this simple thing.

Basically, you and your friend install the plugin. You type "/xspeakit Good Morning!", and the text you typed is dictated on both computers.
