TeresaBenedicta Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Okay, strange post here, I apologize beforehand. Maybe this isn't appropriate, I don't know. But, over the past few months I've felt like I've really gotten to know a lot of the VSers and I've really, really enjoyed the posts and interaction on this board. I've often found myself a little sad that we're all on at different times and don't necessarily have the opportunity for conversations (although, some of our threads almost got there, with such quick posts after one another). Anywho, I don't know if anyone's interested, but I thought it would be neat to also be able to chat via one of those instant messenger services. Maybe this is something that should be shared through PM, again I'm not sure. But would anybody be interested? I don't currently have/use a messenger system, but would be willing to do one if anybody was interested. Again, I don't know. Just throwing it out there.

vee Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Ive never been on there but I hear there is a tinychat site that PMers go on. Im wondering if the powers that be can set up one just for VS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I think I have two people on my AIM, my oldest foster son, and my spiritual director. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTheresa Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I just got on Skype, does that count? I'm still not exactly sure what it is... the only other thing I'm on is facebook chat. I have a yahoo IM but I don't really use it. I would definitely be willing to get something started though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilde Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Yes we can make a VS tinychat room, if there's interest for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilde Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Oh and of course there's MSN. I've never used any other type of IM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starets Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I think a tinychat room would be fine. That way all that is needed is a browser and no IM software need be installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
she_who_is_not Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 We used to have vocation chats on Friday nights when there was a Phatmass chat room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I went in the tinychat, it seemed like there was always some type of trauma or the threat of it - since it was public, anyone could go in (e.g. - not a PMer) and say or broadcast (there's a video option) anything. Is this still the same or can the rooms be private, like an invite-only thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amor vincit omnia Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I think it would be awesome if VS could get a tinychat...i would like to get to many more of yall! I have Skype as well as AIM instant messenger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can require people to log in with twitter or facebook, and as long as we keep the address known through personal messages and don't post it publicly i think it'll be fine. oree I was never one of those who created the rooms so maybe one of those can say more. Anyway. MSN and skype works for me too. I never even thought of skype, but i have that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
