Now we got iChat we should use it for something interesting.



What about saying that one hour each day we discuss creationism, one hour G5/IBM, one hour Bush vs. rest of the world etc.



At "Appleinsider"



Any suggestion about subject and time?

    I like the idea of an AppleInsider chat room. iChat makes this very easy. I'm not so sure about the subjects changing everyhour, though. Maybe rooms like AppleInsider-FH (future hardware), AppleInsider-SW (software), etc. That way we can have each forum in its own room. That way you dont need to change the topic each hour, and you can have them up all the time.

    It's a chat room, not a username, Einstein.

    Anyone try it with ChatZilla? That would be my only hope of going in there - don't have Jaguar yet....

    Doesn't AIM require an AOL account?

    No, an AIM account is a free.

    Though, if you have an AOL account, you can use it instead.



    Edit: I just tried connecting through the official AIM client and it seems that you can't arbitrarily join a chat room as you can with iChat. You have to be invited by someone already there to get in. Strange.

    I just invite myself to get into the AI chat room when I go in there.

    I can't see anyone in there =)



    This works with iChat or the standard AIM client, Mulattabianca.
