EvC again has chat, a useful feature at times. This version as of yet does not have colors, or the ability to italicize or bolder type. It must be a free version (or low cost) that Percy found.
Communication is always a fascinating topic for me. On the one hand, a posting board has advantages over real-time chat in that one can have the time to say precisely what it is that they want to say.
On the other hand, spontaneous conversations allow for different interaction.
(Come one come all...visit chat. )
chat allows quicker reactions than does instant messaging.
What does everyone think?

Thoughts about chat
what I mean is, do we want this feature and if so, how deluxe do we want it to be?
as an aside to Percy, I miss the colors...(didnt we have them before?)
but if this version is a lower manageable cost, it may go over ok.
Before, when EvC had chat, jar and I (and occasionally Jon and PD) were the only members who used it.
Jar likely wont use it again unless he is asked to be chatroom administrator...im not sure how busy he is these days compared to last year.

Re: Thoughts about chat
Well, I personally would help pay for a more advanced version. Not a large amount, but I'd chip in $5.00 if we could get a few of us to do that, we could have a deluxe chat with rooms, colors, and lots of bells and whistles!

Re: Thoughts about chat
you are likely right, Theodoric. Before, as i said, we had 3-4 members use chat regularly...out of over 1000 registered members who could have yet did not use it.
The fact that its free is good. It can serve as a quick communication device between any members.
It is no substitute for a well written post

Come to chat. I promise not to preach, though an intellectual conversation is a possibility

Attention, Percy?
Here at our busy EvC, chat is seldom used. I sit in there now and see nobody....perhaps we need a better way to alert people when we are in chat.
