sorry it seemed like I dropped out.... but for some reason nothing I
posted was showing up on my screen and I didn't see any responses, so
I logged off. It's getting late and I had to wind things up anyway.

Good night Damsel, Boli, Crash - and Kalahari (if you're still awake).

Yes, Christine.... we were chatting in the rfc applet
So, where were you JILL and Sandi???

Darn!!!!

I checked into the server earlier,and saw no one on my notify list..so
I figured no one was there. But it was much earlier in the night
anyway.

Someone send me a note when you are all chatting! Of course, if I am
at work, then I won't get it til the next day.....

I wonder when Skype will overtake irc. Audio conference calling is
limited to 4 users, but that's gotta change!

Skype, for the most part is free but it's a telephone company venture and
does incur charges depending. www.skype.com

I'm not affiliated with Skype, just familiar with it, as my brother calls
me from his 'puter all the time! 🙁

Skype is wonderful. I usually chat to my son (in England) and my
daughter (in Germany) most days via our computers. Saves us a fortune.

Sorry, I was sound asleep 🙂 Whenever I drop in lately only Crash is
around; we've had a couple of brief chats.

We've been using Vonage for about, gosh, 4 months now? The only problem we
have is if the cable connection goes out, but other than that, for $24.99 a
month and free unlimited long distance in the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico,
you can't go wrong. There's also a referral thingy where if you get a
friend to sign up, they get a first month for free and the person who
referred them gets a couple of months for free. Just have a broadband
connection and you're in.

A friend of mine, in Italy, proposed me a thing similar to a chat, but
nearer to a telephone (you can also hear his voice, or see him with a web
cam). The program is called "msn messenger" look here:
http://messenger.msn.com
I don't know if you must pay something (he told me he doesn't pay).

This assumes you want to audio chat with someone. I despise talking on the
phone and to me it's the same thing. Yahoo messenger is free and offers
voice-chat. But things get garbled when people start laughing or talking
all at once. It became very annoying so I quickly got tired of that, too.
Call me old, I don't care; I'd rather just type. 🙂

you want to call a landline🙂

You can type with Skype🙂 My two kids ofen call me into a conference
chat and we have a lot of fun. I don't always use voice especially when
someone is watching tv in the same room.

Pandora a land line is a regular telephone line as in your house or
payphone instead of a cell phone that can go anywhere. If you use chat
programs it goes through your computer's modem that's connected to your
landline. This is not *always* the case as we can also connect using
our cell phones but I think you get the idea.
