Caveats

  • This function causes the script to sleep for 0.1 seconds.
  • DATA_BORN is not UTC. It is Pacific Time based.
  • It's worth restating: if the requested data does not exist - or if the key given is not for an agent - then dataserver will not be raised.

DATA_ONLINE
/*
    Server friendly online status example by Daemonika Nightfire.
    
    It is not a big load for the server to check every 2 minutes if there is an avatar in the region.
    But it is nonsense to trigger a dataserver event for online status when nobody is in the region.
    For this purpose, the script checks the number of avatars in the region on each pass.

Deep Notes

If you merely wish to show avatar name information in the viewer window, it may be more straightforward to avoid a DATA_NAME dataserver event and simply output:
llSay(0, "secondlife:///app/agent/" + (string)id + "/about");
