This plugin gets to be the first and only plugin that will connect the OkCupid messenger program to the Pidgin Instant Messaging program (http://pidgin.im).

Extreme special thanks to Temujin Ayamikhan for the custom icons. He worked really hard on rendering these in 3D for us.

Todo List: 07/22/09

Save bandwidth by not updating buddy list every minute because each IM sends the buddy list

Fix the directory buddy icons are stored

Show whole buddy list, not just online buddies

Correct buddies who show up as online but either blocked the account or have messaging turned off

Acknowledge message was received so it doesn't appear in the inbox as missed

Use for 'get info' to return proper JSON
