Friday's chat Room
there was another successful chat session last Friday
We did not see Louise or Victoria this time but welcomed back for the third time recently the room's founder Rik plus another (former) Oregon resident Susan E. Also making a welcome albeit brief appearance was "the watchman" well known amongst Florian's Corfid Discussion Forum afficiandos as a very frequent and loquacious poster there.
tonight as usual there will be a session commencing at 9pm EST
the direct link is
http://www.rikschatroom.shorturl.com
but it is more reliable and quicker if you install the mIRC client
full details on my web ite at
http://www.mirc.shorturl.com
this page includes full congfiguration details irc link ref port number etc in a
fully illustrated (screenshots) format.
Rik was delighted to find all his old mIRC special codes were stil functional and the screen was soon full of graphical kisses being blown by Rik in Lori's direction.
I had expected "brink" to turn up but he didn't or was unable to get in despite my message to him on the Corfid discussion forum at
http://www.corfid.shorturl.com
If you see this "brink" and still need help please e-mail me at
fowlesjohn@hotmail.com
Tonight's topic suggestion
tonight I think we could usefully discuss the relative merits of the newsgroup (alt.music.lightfoot)
short easy link
http://www,newsgroup.shorturl.com
and the alternative as offered on Florian's Corfid site
In particular the fact that as the watchman recently demonstrated there one can use HTML and actually display pictures something that the non-binary newsgroup at least when viewed via Google groups as per the shorturl link I have given above cannot do
Cheers
John Fowles
Finally my Lightfoot "Webring"
ringmaster's site is available for you to use at
http://www.johnfowles.org.uk/lightfoot
please sign the guest book there so I have an idea who is using it and whether it is still useful as I plan a major revamp soon
