Well folks,

I wasn't sure whether Lindaland HAD a live chatroom, so I took it upon myself to create the Unofficial Linda-land chat room.

It just got so hard for us to have live discussions with one another, some of us have AOL, some have MSN, some have Yahoo (I have all three) and so it's been a logistical nightmare. This chatroom requires no special software, just a browser.

You'll find the chat room at:
www.linda-chat.tk

If Randall gives it his blessing, perhaps we can change the title to the OFFICIAL Lindaland chat room.

In any event, I'll be there for the rest of the day waiting for you folks to show up and start yacking with each other. It's yours for as long as you use it...so USE IT!

Love to you all and happy Solstice!

daf

P.S. If this is actually useful and people use it...I would be more than happy to start hosting an ad-free version on my own webspace. Right now it's hosted by Bravenet.

Dear Dafreman,

I think it is a great & fun idea! However, I have such a hard time keeping up, because every line looks the same to me, and I can't tell who from who.

If you do make one on your website, it would be great to have everyone a different color and/or font. Then you can tell who is talking. (or I guess I should say I can tell) LOL

Proxi, I did follow your link and saw your pictures. thanks.

Ok, now I have to go make din-din.

Later, ~N.

Great idea. It would free this forum to be a proper message board. Trouble is, I got the error message when I clicked.

Proper message board?
I see nothing wrong with it the way it is...I love it here. What's improper about it?

Well obviously I'm going to have to shop around for a live chat solution that fits everyone's tastes and needs.

I'll be on that later today.

Me too, managed to find pix and then Trillian

It's cool - any way we can get smilies / different colours for names so easier to read?

Pity I can't log in at work so late night chats for me!!

This is a brilliant idea !! Thanks Daf

The only down side I can see - is that I love reading everyones posts (I tend read rather than join in) and now I'm worried that I will miss out on a lot of your thoughts spiralling and bouncing off one another, because of the different time zones.

Could we possibly schedule days and times to chat (or in my case listen)? Or are there any alternatives???
