Chat?

Post by ColeRockLee »

Anyone think a little forum chatroom is a good idea? More and more I'm seeing more than few ppl on at the same time. Nothing crazy just a simple little chatbox like you see on some myspace pages or whatever. I think it would be a cool addition.

I created this one real fast: chat/

It's not perfect, but it works. I don't have the time to implement a full blown chat application :D. If you guys like (and use) it I will add link to the frontpage.

Hella fast. Keesj your the man.

Unfortunately however it must be adobe shockwave based. I can't view it, I'm on linux. I'll have my windows machine together in the next week or so. I'll check it then.

Yeah it's flash/shockwave based (don't really know the difference). But isn't here a Linux plugin?

Plain flash is fine it's just the shockwave player that isn't available for Linux. It's no big deal I'll check it out when my Windows box is finished.

... I think people would use if they only actually know that there is a chat... a simple link would be totally enough... I like the chat idea. 8)

HA! I'm in! I had to install the windows version of firefox + plugins under wine. It ain't as stable as I'd like but it'll do for now. See you all in there.

You're right. However, I'm not yet sure if this chat application is the right one. Something really integrated with the forum would be better. If I don't find a better solution in a couple of days I will just add the link :).

I didn't want to start a new thread for this so I decided to say this here.

THANK YOU keesj for the recent interest in updating/maintaining the site. It is very much appreciated by not just me, but all the people who post/lurk here.

Keep up the good work homie, your efforts pay off in our music.

:D
