It's nearly Friday and I =
thought that I'd
pass this on for what it's worth. No flames are needed or
expected. For about a month now myself and several family =
members
have been using a voice and text based chat program to keep in
touch. We are impressed with it and I was wondering if =
there would
be any interest among listees in having a forum set up to discuss some =
of the
things that we do on the present server but by voice and in real
time. The program is freeware and all one needs is a =
sound
board, speakers and a microphone. The program is =
called
FireTalk and is downloadable from the web at www.multitude.com .
It will allow as many as want to be on at one time =
and you
can have both the text chat box and the voice mode running
simultaneously. A forum has to be setup each time you go on =
and
should be password protected to keep out the usual unwanted persons =
that seem
to frequent the chat rooms. I would like to suggest that =
if it
comes to fruitation that the forum be called VW Busses =
and be
password protected with GERRY which everyone is most =
familiar
with. This would allow members to converse in real =
time and
in a group atmosphere. Just putting it out
FWIW. Thanks.
