I'm thinking about hanging around in the Chat Room at about 5:00 PM and/or 6:00 PM on most days. I've found it easiest to open the Chat Room in a different browser tab and then have access to both the chat room and the main site.
Does anyone else want to schedule some Chat Room times?
Please post your suggestions.
I'm sorry that I was unavailable for the initial chat room meet up hosted by Larry and CM, but think that this is a feature we should try to utilize.
What do you think?

Over the last 6 weeks I have visited close to 100 blogs and message boards. Most are about the size as ours, some are huge with membership in the 1000’s. Medium sized to larger boards utilize chat more than the smaller ones. The chat room can be a powerful tool for this board and I suspect its popularity will grow as our numbers grow.
The 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm is when most of post occurs; we can all pop in the chat room for a few minutes.

Jack & Co., I thought Larry scheduled a Chat Room for Wed at 5:00 and the topic was O's stimulus? But I will pop in today at 5:00 to have a look see!

At 5:00 PM the last two days, CM, Lou and I have entered the Chat Room to discuss misc. topics.
I think this is something the rest of you would enjoy and maybe we can expand it to other times.
It's definitely a different way of expressing our point of view and I think it might be a good way for us to get to know each other better.
What do you think?

Need to get some work done but later today; I’ll create an announcement on the home page.
"Most weekdays 5:00 p.m. join us in the chat room"

I'm still checking into the Chat Room every day at about 5:00 PM.
I hate to be a broken record on this, but I still think it's another way for us to get to know each other and in some respects an easier way to share information.
Hope to see you there.

I think VOR, Jack Oliver, Rocket and CM should meet up in the Chat Room for a "no holds barred" match up. Maybe we could throw Lou and Larry in there also and have one big tag team match. Of course, to make it really interesting, we should probably have a cage around the Chat Room so nobody could escape until the end of the contest. Just a thought ...

thanks for the invite, but I get enough just from these posts. Im sure others would say the same about me.
what is it? do people talk on the phone or just type like they do hear? What would be the difference?

What would be the difference? Jack Oliver, Check out the chat room, it's usually empty and you can see how the format works. Folks that are logged into the chat room type comments that are instantly seen by everyone else in the chat room and responses are more timely than on the message board. The other nice feature is that the comments are cleared after everyone logs off and you can talk about others who aren't logged into the chat room.

Jack, I was actually considering joining this evening. Now that I see that your negative karma has zeroed out, I am not so sure. Actually, I intend to try.

Entropy, Jack. The only state to be in.
Unless it's Catharsis.

More often than not I’ll be in the chat room Monday – Thursday 5:00 p.m. Jack is there as well, Lou drops in time to time.
It’s quick and fast, stop by and see how I really type, there is no spell check, it is real time chat. I’ve been looking into Skype to see if we can add audio and god forbid video, of course optional.
Join us I think you will enjoy.
