The New Official but Unofficial Public A-M-V.org Skype group

I just have a link in the Links bar of my browser to this: http://mibbit.com/?channel=%23AMV&server=irc.synirc.org

Just asks me to input my nick, and that's it. Easy peezy.

Yeah, I use mibbit while at work and chatzilla while at home. Easy stuffs.

Helpful little link though. Good on ya Brad Bard.

Oh well, yay!

IRC isn't exactly difficult... There's a browser plugin for it. Doesn't get much simpler than that.

I don't think its as much as the difficulty as much as it is that a lot of people already have skype and are using it regardless of AMV related stuff. It makes it easier to consolidate all their chats into one place/program.

Although the mibbit link Brad posted is handy and might entice more people to at least try that.

Why is everyone fighting over "the best single place to chat with everyone"? Why not just support multiple ways for people to chat? There will always be people that will prefer and only use one way to chat, might as well connect ppl on the most popular options. I'm all for having Skype AND irc chats. I don't see the issue, the org already uses multiple ways to communicate with people, such as Twitter and Facebook, why not adopt more ways to chat that are newer amd trendy as well, because lets be honest, irc is rather old and not so poular these days...

Who's fighting? I thought this was a conversation.

Me too Someone's drama meter is sensitive.

This isn't the only place where people are discussing it, I know where's he's coming from.

I mean, sure, it's a great way to fracture the community, hastening people's rates of departure due to perceptions of non-inhabited-ness of each of the splinter grounps that people will at first try to inhabit all of, but later, due to force of habit and ease of use, abandon as they settle on the single thing they like most; but why not suggest a bunch of different platforms?

(amidoin'itright?)
