Maybe I can get some of the producers/effects people to have sessions, or something with fans.

That'd be pretty darn neat. :)

Definately. Even if they can't have many sessions due to how busy they are us fans can converse =)

Okay, I'm trying this chat room.

Its PHP style, so we'll see how it works.

I'll be on most of the night so if anyone wants to try to join the werechat, I'll be around. Or I should be.

Hmm, that PHP chat sure does blink a lot.. any suggestions on chat solutions out there? c'mon I know some of you are programmers.. I'm sure as heck not.

Have to ask on another forum what programme they use to run the chat, shouldn't be hard to find out in a day or two

I've seen some Java applets work nicely in places... The applet sits happily in your browser and connects to an IRC server and channel automatically...

Another suggestion though, just make a room on a server and notify us of it's location to see how it goes before installing an applet, because this idea rawks :D

how do a yahoo instant message group chat instead of a site form just for chats. i am on yahoo messager all the time and i know a feature where they can put a group of people and chat all at once. Plus sometime if i am not working i am on there 24/7 and i can some one to talk to about werewolf movies and other topics that will spark someother people idea across.
Just a idea i do not if you agree but give it some thought.

Personally, I'd go with the IRC idea, since it's a lot less hassle. Find a host, register a channel and set up a few easy scripts to Op the right people (eg +o Calypso Blue).
