Hey guys/gals,
In case you haven't noticed, I'm trying out a new feature once again. It's an Instant Messenger type program. There's a button at the top of the page that says "Launch Instant Messenger" When you click on this, it'll pop up a window where a java based program will load. This program works similarly to other popular instant message programs. You will see a list of people currently on the instant message program. By double clicking on their name, a new window will pop up where you will have real time chat with that person. This is different than the regular chat room in that only you and that other person can see what you're typing. I know some people have had difficulties getting into the chat rooms and this new feature is based on the same technology.
Clicking on the "Launch Instant Messenger" button will pop up a tall skinny window. At first the window will be completely gray (this is the applet loading). When the applet loads, the window will look like this:
Notice the circled area. If you see this text there, then you haven't connected to the network yet. When you finally do connect to the network, you'll see a list of names and the text in the circled area will disappear. The window will look like this:
If after a couple minutes (at most) you still haven't connected to the network, then close the window and launch the program again.
Please let me know how you like this feature or ask me any questions. You must have a java enabled browser to use this feature and the chat rooms. Thanks.
Sincerely,
Snotty ;D

It worked for me, after a few minor technical difficullties were ironed out on my end. 
So on that note, good-night everyone.
didn't think it would be much fun typing to myself, I already do enough talking to myself, now that can be fun sometimes ;D
