Does anyone know about the future of this site...expanded features and so on? For example, I always thought that we should have a live chat room.
This should be in Breaking News.
We already have it. You didn't know?
nope...and I've been here since the election of 2000. where is the chat room.
Start your own channel on an IRC network somewhere. No one is stopping you.
I detest the kind of chat room you are talking about!
I hear plans call for a 1200 room casino/hotel on the strip with a Ronald Reagan theme.
There used to be a chat. It was associated with the streaming radio broadcasts. It seems they have gone by the wayside.
Yeah heff come over to washington watch one its under goverment and politics on yahoo chat. Bring your flak jacket it gets pretty gnarly.
Live voice chat? That would require so much resource.
If you guys want to do a live chat, check out PalTalk. www.paltalk.com
you can create your own room and be a moderator. You can control who is can join.
I love to chat! I would love to chat with Freepers in real time. maybe we can meetup on the yahoo group someday. I think it's pretty easy to start chatting right from there.
Aren't we, in essence, chatting right now?
It's an exclusive chat room with a lot of PNG's and a lot of "fishy" stuff goes on, but we like it. < /inside joke >
Nope; it's still there. It's just a carefully guarded secret. You have to attain to the third circle and have your secret decoder ring to get the memos and the password.
"Aren't we, in essence, chatting right now?"
Well yeah, and I'm so hooked on this place that I actually don't go to a lot of places where I used to go to chat, or I don't go there so much. But real-time chatting is a little different.
I don't like the AIM thing that the kids use so much, you can only talk to one person at a time.
I guess I'll always just like loud parties!
nah you can have group chats using AIM.
"nah you can have group chats using AIM."
Thanks for that tip, I didn't know that. I'll have to get the kid to show me how.
I have a chatroom which opens between 8:30 PM to 9 PM everynight Free Republic is mentioned often as a source of the latest news as is Drudge, Rush and Fox.
This is the first site I come to before I enter chat.
Fr has a second site on Yahoo
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/freerepublic2/
it has a chat feature, how often anybody uses I dont know
