Abstract

A method for producing a watcher list by a mobile telephone, with the watcher list including identifiers for people or communication devices whose status is intended to be watched by a presence computer PR which is connected to a mobile radio network, and whose status information is configured to be displayed on a display unit, on the mobile telephone. In this case, identifiers, which are already stored as telephone book data in a telephone book store and are associated with people or communication devices are read from the telephone book store in the mobile telephone, and in response to a control signal, a selection of these identifiers is marked as identifiers to be watched, and identifiers in the form of information relating to these identifiers to be watched, in order to form the watcher list.
