Hey everyone!
I was wondering if the Houston area had some sort of online write-in set up, or whether anyone would be interested in such a thing?
I think it would be super helpful for those of us who like writing at night and find ourselves in need of encouragement or a friendly word war or two.
What do y'all think?

Like a group chat thing? I would be up for it, we'd just have to get the logistics sorted out.

There is a site that we could do this at.
Tinychat.com
It's free, but if alot of people broadcast (use webcam) it can slow in vids.
Just made one here. Tinychat.com/txnano
I'll be on now. :)

Skype might work too... with just voice it'd be pretty fast. :) And the Te House inner loop write-in just finished up half an hour ago, so they do go a little late.

I'd be interested. I was feeling a bit sick tonight, so we cut out early. Tinychat is a good idea. I would suggest posting a blog the morning before you actually get it going, that way people know when to have their internet ready. But, yea...I'm totally game.

Tinychat is a good idea, especially if we decide on a name and stick to it throughout. That way once we set up 'general hours' people can come and go as they please without worries.

I like the idea, it may be the only way I can do a write in, since I pretty much have to take my kids anywhere I go! I tend to be a real night owl, so it would work for me at night, after the kids are in bed. Let me know, I'll be there.

@lonelyfilly I'm a night owl too, so I'll definitely be around. Knight_Z and I are doing a write in on aim (we were on tinychat, but moved), if you're interested. You can come poke me on username 'laifana', and we can set up a group chat. If AIM doesn't work for you, we can try something else?

Oh oh oh! I want to join!!! I came in too late in the game to join in the tinychat yesterday.
Due to work and whatnot, I usually don't even start writing until 10pm or later.

@miss.jaded can you do AIM?

Hrm...I'd have to download it, but I don't see any harm in that.

It might be a little late for everyone now, but Knight Z and I were planning on starting an AIM chat for word war/encouragement purposes.
If you don't want to download the program, an alternative is to use meebo.com. You can sign in on AIM as well as use groupchat through it :)

So I don't know what happened, because it says I'm in the txnano room (I've been there for about an hourish?), but that it's empty.

Everyone went to bed... had to do the same. Computers go off in my house when everyone goes to bed... :( Shared house, shared computers...
I'm going to be online till around 4, though, if anyone wants to write!

So whose up for an online write-in tonight? I'll keep the chat open, but i'll be busy writing, with stops every so often.
----------It will be an interesting tool for all who need help, or just want some sort of alternative social interaction during the month of madness :)
