Thanks for the suggestions. I got an answer from someone on Twitter, and in case others were wondering the same, here's what I found. If you double tap on the name of the relay, or I assume the name of the group (assuming you have been approved to join the group), then the messages will start playing. There after, messages automatically play when people post them to the group, as long as you are in the HeyTell app. I'm not exactly sure what a public relay is either, other than being a central group that people can join so they can post updates or follow the group's activities during an event. I've heard that as of tonight, there are over 100 people part of the group already, and the convention doesn't really get tgoing till Saturday. Looks like this could get quite busy. There doesn't seem to be a way to skip through messages, so I guess once you're in Heytell, then you have to listen to all messages, or perhaps you only hear a select few. Either way, it seems like a great way to stay up to date on what's going on with a group, or to follow the group's happenings if you can't be there live.
In case anyone is interested, go to the following link if you are going to the convention or want to follow from afar: http://heytell.com/nfb Have fun, Wayne On 6/28/12, Christina <blindmaclo...@gmail.com> wrote: > I think you need to double tap on a message to "select" it.
