I'm currently taking a course at college in software development so I want to hone my coding skills so as a small project I've decided to make a Skype Tool as a form of practice. I know there are a bunch of them already out there but I want to make one that doesn't always crash and actually has a bunch of cool features.
All I need to know right now if there is anything specific that you guys/girls would want to see in a new Skype tool. I've got a bunch of features already sorted out and most of them coded which I'll list below. Any opinions would be great and if I can get everything sorted out quick enough I'll probably be releasing a beta version in a week or so.
I'm going to be calling it HazMat, if anyone has any better ideas I'm open for suggestion but unless its awesome, HazMat will probably stick.
Here are the features I have already coded or intend to:
I've been toying with the idea of including a Skype Resolver but at the moment I'm not sure, all the ones I've been using as far seem to be on and off with their functionality and the cheapest API I've seen so far is $12 a year, so I'll be considering this but it isn't a definitive feature.
Anymore ideas would be appreciated. Thanks 🙂

Here are the features I have already coded or intend to:
- Basic Skype functionality (Call, Message, Online Status, Display Name, ect..)
- Call Spamming (Call user, hang up after 2 seconds, rinse and repeat until user decides to stop)
- Message Spamming (Pretty self explanitory)
- Quote generator (Create fake and yet perfectly genuine Skype quotes)
- Friend list information (Dump friend list data that includes most information available on a Skype profile into a CSV file(?))
