I wrote this Plugin after I saw a similiar one without remote function. This plugin provides you with realtime information about player join / player quit events and display them on your desktop (Windows 7 ( XP not tested yet)/ Linux ). And you are able to chat with friends without being online.
How it looks: Windows:

Linux(could be different)

Playerlist & chat:

Sadly there are a few bugs in this version,
please have in mind that this is a beta, and I'm new to Java and this is my first bigger project :)
