Hi, Here's a suggestion for an alternative to IRC.
I'm co-founder of a web-based chat startup called Chatroll, and it sounds like it would be an ideal home for an informal chat group like the one being discussed. It's very lightweight, easy to get to (an IxDA group would have its own permanent URL), very fast, no software to install, and free. It's not IRC, which means it allows for more group-like features like posting videos and links. And it supports full chat funcationality (unlike Twitter). It's designed specifically for interest groups like IxDA. You can check it out here: http://chatroll.com I've created a sample IxDA group for you to try out. The group admin for now is me but I'd be happy to transfer it to anyone on this list... http://chatroll.com/general/ixda-discussion Feel free to contact me directly with questions or requests. I'd love to help out the IxDA community however I can. Cheers, Jonathan . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
