Use this script if you always wanted to now at which time your colleagues enter and leave the office.

What does it do?

It will scan the local network every minute for predefined computernames. If this returns a true than the computer is switched on and the colleague is probably at the office and it will send ‘John Doe has entered the office’ to a Twitter page.

How can I use it

Currently the script is only tested on Mac OS, it shouldn’t be so hard to convert it to a script that is working under Windows, ‘nmblookup’ should be replaced with ‘ping’. Please leave a comment at this page if you have this script working in Windows.
