Abstract

A system for notifying and updating status of selected customer agent includes a customer computer, a computer network, and a customer contact processing computer. The customer contact processing computer is coupled to the customer computer by the computer network. The customer contact processing computer includes a storage unit to store a status indication for each agent. The customer contact processing computer is responsive to an input from the customer computer over the computer network, which corresponds to a selection of at least one of the agents by a customer computer. The customer contact processing computer transmits over the computer network the status indication for the selected agents from the storage unit to the customer computer. The customer contact processing computer updates the status indication transmitted to the customer computer for the agents from time to time.
