Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2001 12:09:53 -0000 From: Bob Zwick Subject: Chat reminder: Thursday, August 2, testing more text chat platforms for distance Join us in Richard Seltzer's Business on the Web Chat Series. This week we'll continue exploring realtime online interaction through free or almost-free text chat service providers. We'll all meet at Bob Zwick's http://www.cottagemicro.com/webshare and journey to several different services to test and evaluate their features and usefulness for distance education. Bob has simplified his entry page with a BIG "CLICK TO CHAT" button so whoever shows up will go to the right room. There is also a HumanClick button that late-comers can use to contact us when we're testing another chat site. On the agenda is the feature rich Chatway hosted ChatSpace Java Chat room. AUDIO for the session will be at PalTalk->Miscellaneous->*E-School For my reactions to/conclusions from last week's session, see my article "Text Chat Choices" at http://www.samizdat.com/textchat.html We meet on Thursdays from noon to 1 PM Eastern Daylight Time (GMT -4). Transcripts of past chat sessions are available at http://www.samizdat.com/chat.html Please send email with your follow-on questions and comments, suggestions for other voice chat apps for us to experiment with and for other future topics, and requests to receive email reminders about upcoming sessions. Best wishes.
